One More K

Meet Jeri Chua, Singapore’s first female that qualified for the Ironman World Championships in Kona and one of the most accomplished ultra athletes from Singapore. She is the owner of the Red Dot Running Company and a key figure in the Singapore trail/ultra community.

Jeri shares her insights on:

- why Singapore’s community is special

- how demographics are changing

- which athletes to follow

- the latest fashion in ultra running

- how Asian races are adapting with more money coming in

In the news section, we cover the London Marathon, Marathon des Sables and the pitch of One Hundred events at BBC’s Dragon’s Den. Wrapped up with Ned’s drop that makes Markus emotional.
