The Anlene Orchard Mile is a sporting event exclusive to women held in Singapore where women either run or walk a mile (1.6 kilometres) on a straight course down Singapore's most famous and popular shopping street, Orchard Road. Just for the event, traffic authorities close off two lanes of one of Singapore's busiest streets for the duration of the race that is usually held in the morning from 7am onwards. The flag-off for the mile begins near the Dhoby Ghaut MRT station and ends near Orchard MRT station where participants run past famous landmarks such as The Istana the President's place of residence.
