My Story
Hi Guys,
I am Guo Kuan and i am 18 this year. I started long distance running in 2013 where i did my first competitive long distance run of 10km (Race Against Cancer) at the age of 15. I was never in any track and field CCA and coupled with the lack of knowledge in long distance running, that race was very tough for me. I still remember the thought i had when i first saw the 7km mark: When is this ever going to end? Followed by that was the longest 3km i have ever felt for any race. Fortunately, i pressed on and managed to achieve my goal of a Sub 1hr timing.
I was never a fan of running at the start, however as i started running more, i felt that long distance running is a way to challenge and prove myself. Thus i encourage everyone to give it a shot and i am sure u will soon enjoy it.
Fast forward 3 years later, I have done a few more running event such as the Pocari Sweat Run, 2XU compression Half Marathon... each time hoping a attain a new Personal Best. This year, I decided that it was time to challenge myself even further by running my first Full Marathon at the Sundown Marathon 2017. I came across the Sundown with Love advertisement and decided to help raise fund for ACRES as i have been an animal lover since young and animals are also my current field of study. They have also aided me in the rescue of a sick bird that i came across despite them having to drive all the way from the west to east.
Please do support me in my attempt to raise funds for Acres and also in my running journey!!! :)
