Besides, this would also help him train for an army half-marathon on Aug 27, which covers a distance of 21km.“I mainly enjoy being outdoors and coming up with different ways of exercising," the 24-year-old officer said.“Before this run, there were a lot of preparations that had to be in place. First, progressive build-up training which was running 5km and 10km to make sure my body is conditioned for this run,” said the Year 4 student.
“Whenever I felt tired or my muscles ached, I took breaks and hydrated myself. I even bought isotonic drinks to replenish the salt in my body,” he said of being physically fatigued. Mr Chua usually takes the train to work and reaches the office by 9am. He had to leave his home a little earlier but managed to make it in time for work when he ran.TikTok users bombarded him with questions while some saluted him for his effort.When asked by one of them if he would do it again, he replied, “I would definitely do something similar again but not the same route because I tend to get quite bored if I do it over and over again.
He told TNP, “After I posted the video on Instagram, a friend messaged me and asked, ‘Why not you run to my house? I’ll treat you to the best breakfast in the morning.’Get The New Paper on your phone with the free TNP app. Download from the
