Anyone who thinks that long-distance running around Singapore is too difficult, if not impossible, needs to meet Mr Ryo, who managed to log an impressive 190 kilometres all over the country.
And it’s one thing to cover many kilometres on your bike, or for a team or even a duo to run around Singapore together, but Mr Ryo did it completely alone on foot and has the receipts to show it.Running in Singapore is no joke, given its high levels of humidity even during the cooler months when Mr Ryo completed his feat.
He took screenshots of himself along the way, including one in front of the iconic Tuas Lamp Post 1, which cyclists have marked with stickers as a sign they’re reached one of the westernmost points of Singapore, which Mr Ryo appears to have reached last November.that stickers would be allowed to remain on the Tuas lamp post, calling it “a special spot to help cyclists find their way.”
In March of last year, Philippe Daniel and Jean Runjichrun were featured on the Facebook page of the Endurance Asia Podcast for completing an extended RTI of 200 kilometres in 28 hours as part of fundraising efforts for coral reef restoration.“It’s good to let people know we Singaporeans can also achieve that in our homeland,” he told TISG.
