The Modern Pentathlon for the Singapore 2010 Youth Olympic Games (Singapore 2010) consists of four of the five Modern Pentathlon disciplines: fencing, swimming, running and shooting. The fifth discipline, riding, will not be competed at Singapore 2010. Pentathletes achieve points in each discipline according to their performance. The Combined Run/Shoot is an event with a handicap start based on the pentathletes' total points from the fencing and swimming events. Pentathletes set off at intervals that correspond in seconds to the Pentathlon point's difference between themselves and the athlete in front. The first athlete across the finish line wins the gold medal.
