"Elite Start List" packed with Olympians Medalist
Downloaded @great_run app on Google Play Store and have a look at the startlist.
Super grateful to be included in the Elite Category (Number 52) and got the opportunity to race alongside the Olympians like @galenruppofficial (Rio 2016 Marathon Silver Medalist) @bashirabdi204 (Toyko 2020 Marathon Bronze Medalist) @stewy_mac3 (Australian Mile Record Holder - 3:48.37 and a 1500m - 3:29.51) @kingcheserek (17 NCAA Titles) @jakeliamsmith98 (Winner of Big Half Marathon 2021)
Although @gomofarah won't be joining this event this time, but I am still hoping that he will come and support his training buddy Bashir Abdi and former training partner Galen Rupp here in Newcastle.
Men Elite will be flagged off at 9.45am here in Newcastle, that will be 4.45pm (Malaysia Time) and it will be livestream on @bbcsport
I am super exciting for it and I believe I am going to run a great race here! Aiming for a sub 72 minimum and the best will be achieving a sub 70.
I am a fan boy of @gomofarah
and @galenruppofficial and now I have the opportunity to meet Galen Rupp in person 😃
Also not forgetting to mention the Women Elite @hellenobiri
(2017 World Champion for Women 5000m), @bygolly.molly
(Tokyo 2020 Marathon Bronze Medallist) and @charlottepurdue (Winner of Big Half 2021)
