Accessibility
What is the best way to get to Breda?
We advise you to come to Breda preferably by bicycle or public transport.
On Singelloop Sunday, the city centre (within the red line) is not or hardly accessible to vehicles between approximately 7:00 and 18:00. From 6:30 onwards, the cordoning off of the city centre at Claudius Prinsenlaan will begin. At 10:15 at the latest, the cordoning off will be complete. Residents and businesses in the city centre can only leave via Lunetstraat or J.F. Kennedylaan between 7:00 and 10:15.
From 10:15, these intersections will also be closed and it will only be possible to leave the city centre with a vehicle to a very limited extent. After 18:00, the city will be accessible again for both incoming and outgoing traffic. Residents of the city centre will receive detailed instructions in the mail before the Singelloop.
Where are parking facilities?
Visitors and participants who come by car can park in various car parks outside the centre. Signs have been placed on all exit roads around Breda directing you to various car parks, such as Curio (formerly Florijn College, Wilhelminasingel 33) and Breda University of Applied Sciences (formerly NHTV, Monseigneur Hopmansstraat 1, next to Sanquin Blood Bank). Both car parks are within walking distance of the start. There are also possibilities on the roof of Breda railway station (paid). From here it is a few minutes’ walk to the course.
Do you live in the municipality of Breda? Come by bike! The Turfschip bicycle parking opens at 9:00; the Oude Vest and Haven bicycle parkings open at 11:00 and are supervised.

Facilities
Where can I find the toilets?
In addition to the toilets at the changing & shower facilities, temporary toilets have also been installed at the Start Area (behind the Rabobank) and at the exit of the Runners’ Quarter after the finish (Kasteelplein).
Does the organisation work with a medical passport?
Yes, safety first. On the back of the starting number, participants can fill in their personal details. This information can be of great importance if runners receive/need medical assistance during the AMGEN Singelloop Breda.
Fill in the medical passport or ask the runner(s) who you are cheering on to do so!
How can I reach the organisation in case of an emergency?

Bel voor spoedgevallen altijd: 112

Are there clothes lockers available for participants?
This year there will again be lockers where participants can store (valuable) items. For a small fee (EUR 2), the participant receives a locker number and a pin code. The lockers are big enough to hold a bag of clothes.
The lockers can be found in the reception hall of Rabobank at Kloosterplein. This is a short distance from both start and finish.
Are there facilities available to change, shower and/or get a massage?
Participants can change in the Revant building (Brabantlaan 1). It’s only a few minutes away from the start. Afterwards, the runners can shower here and there are sports masseurs present who can massage the fatigue and stiffness out of the muscles!
Are there refreshment stations along the route?
Along the route our volunteers will be ready with sponges and water. There are stations at the start, Café Markhoek, Tramsingel/Nieuwe Prinsenkade, Vlaszak and after the finish (Kasteelplein). On Kasteelplein, participants will be given water and/or a sports drink. Fruit will also be distributed by Albert Heijn, and participants in the family run will be able to enjoy a healthy sugar-free thirst-quencher from Doubdle.
Will I receive a Singelloop medal at the end?
Yes, of course! Runners, volunteers and supporters expressed their preference for the Singelloop medal with ribbon from 3 different medals and neck ribbons. Have it engraved with your name and finishing time for a unique souvenir!
Where can I have my medal engraved?
Participants in the AMGEN Singelloop Breda can have their medal engraved at the exit of the runners’ quarter after the finish.
You can indicate in advance at registration that you want your medal to be engraved. If you want to have this done afterwards, an additional charge will be made.
Can I run for a specific finishing time with pacers?
Participants can use pacers on all distances except the Family Run and Walking & Wheeling. These are experienced runners who guide participants to a predetermined desired finishing time at a steady pace. The control of split times and running pace is entirely in the hands of the pacers. They are clearly recognisable by the flag with the end time on their back. Check the individual distances to see for what times pacers are available.
Is there a party along the route?
Breda is Burgundian, Breda is welcoming and Breda is sporty! More than 30 bands, DJs, dance groups and brass bands will be playing at various spots along the route. If that doesn’t give you wings! Elsewhere on our website, you will find an overview of all the bands, brass bands, DJs and dance groups taking part this year and guiding the participants to a top performance with their music.
Can companies, organisations and charities present themselves during the Bredase Singelloop?
Yes, of course! At Claudius Prinsenlaan, the Promotion square has been set up. A super-convenient mini fair where various companies and institutions present themselves. Of course, there is also plenty to see and do.
At the exit of the runners’ quarters after the finish, there is also plenty of fun! There, too, our sponsors and partners will be active to get the Singelloop Afterparty off to a great start!
Where and when can I collect the running shirt I ordered?
The shirt can be picked up from 21 September in the Run2Day shop at Nieuwstraat 33 in Breda. You only have to tell them your name when you collect it.
There is also a limited number of shirts for sale at Run2Day. If you get there in time, you might be able to exchange it for another size, if available.
Do you live further away and can’t pick up the shirt? For a suitable solution, please contact Joan or Ilse via e-mail at breda@run2day.nl.

Registration starts on Sunday 1 May 2022. You can register via the links on the page distances.
Are you taking part in the Singelloop?
I want to run several distances. How do I register for this?

Can I view or change my registration details?

Can I also order the unique Singelloop running shirt separately?
Of course you can! Order here your shirt.
I forgot to order the Singelloop T-shirt when I registered, can I still do that?
Yes, you can. Order here your shirt.
Can I still register after 18 September 2022?
Yes, you can. You can register online until the very last moment.
However, as of 19 September, there are a few drawbacks:
- registration will be more expensive
- your name will not appear on the starting number
- you will have to collect the starting number yourself during the Singelloop weekend
- you will start from the last starting area.
Can I change the distance?
Yes, that is possible.
In the confirmation e-mail that you receive after your registration, there is a link to change things in your registration if necessary. You can also change the distance here. You can switch from the 10K to the 5K and from the Half Marathon to the 10K, or vice versa.
If you do this after 18 September 2022, your starting number will still be connected to the “wrong” distance. You will receive your starting number in the week prior to the Singelloop, so go to the Municipal Office in the Singelloop Weekend with that starting number and exchange it.
Have you lost this mail or do you have another question about your registration? Please send a message to our competition secretary via this link or via wedstrijdsecretaris@bredasesingelloop.nl
Can I get a refund of my registration fee if I am unable to participate?
No, unfortunately that is not possible. A registration that has been made is final and the registration fee is not refundable. You can let someone else participate with your registration. The confirmation e-mail you receive after registering describes how you can do this.
Even if you change to a shorter distance there will be no refund of your registration fee.
