Somehow since 2024, a JPG OG shows up at the @tokyomarathonfoundation every year🇯🇵
No planning. No coordination.
Just reporting for duty in Tokyo🗼🏃🏻

Tokyo out here collecting JPG runners like Pokémon
*wearing the exact same fit we wore on race day😂
And here’s to the end of season 6 ➡️ welcoming season 7. We really didn’t wanna do much this year but a HANG OUT was necessary for yall. Big humongous thank you to the guys of @yeastside.sg for hosting us this morning and supporting our 6th year anniversary with not only JPG but members from the crews around us. THIS IS WHAT COMMUNITY IS ALL ABOUT🧡
1% of the human population.
1 World Marathon Major.
1st Marathon. In Tokyo of all places.
After months of “training”, I finally completed my first marathon. Thanks to discipline (2 days of red meat and beer detox), grit and those that cheered me on physically and virtually spurred me to cross the finish line.
Massively underestimated how tough it was by starting out strong with the intention of getting PBs for my 5k, 10k and half marathon (which I managed to achieve) only to crash from 26k onwards but managed to get the job done.
To those that doubted me, this one’s for you too.
Lastly, special shout out to @maurten_official ’s caffeinated gels for improving my caffeine tolerance.
Appreciate the love from the running community in SG for showing up and joining our Half A Decade run last night. Your presence was a present to the crew. To everyone who has run, cheered, or supported us along the way, this milestone is yours too🧡

Happy 5th Anniversary to us and here’s to the next decade!

10/10/2020. 2 of my friends got married. 1 friend turned 28. Naruto turned a year older, and all of these happen to fall on “World Porridge Day”.
P.S. photo was taken with a potato.
