The Chapman Consulting Group Sponsors 82 HR Leaders to Race the Standard Chartered Marathon Singapore 2011

The Chapman Consulting Group proudly sponsored 82 HR Leaders to take part in the Standard Chartered Marathon in Singapore that took place yesterday. HR Leaders from more than 40 multinational and local companies across Singapore spent up to six months in training to participate in the event.

In a note to participants last week, Matthew Chapman, CEO of The Chapman Consulting Group said “I am very proud of everyone who has stuck with their commitment – it’s great that so many of our closest HR Leader friends in Singapore appreciate the value of running to maintain healthy lives”.

On a more personal note, he added “I have lost track of the number of people, still
persevering with the run, who have told me that they have been too busy to train properly.
Don’t worry – we’re all in the same boat and I am sure we will survive. I haven’t had time
to train either and even though I’m doing the marathon, I plan to jog the first 15km and
then walk the next 27km, possibly setting a record for my slowest marathon ever. Anyway,
the point is just ‘do it’ and don’t worry about the time”.

Along with five participants from The Chapman Consulting Group, we have heard confirmation that all HR Leaders who took part yesterday have completed the race successfully.
