Working in an office, Ms. Le Thi Ngoc Thuy has been involved in marathons for quite a long time. She came to this sport quite by chance, at first she just wanted to participate for fun and to be healthier, but she gradually realized that running had become a passion. Joining the Binh Phuoc Runners Club, she had the opportunity to meet many members of clubs and groups with the same interests, and make many friends. Every day in the early morning, she spends 30-40 minutes, on weekends about 60-90 minutes to run. Ms. Thuy affirmed: "I find that running brings many benefits, clearly improves health and conquers my limits. I usually run from 3-5km, after completing the distance, I feel refreshed, full of energy to start a new day or dispel fatigue after a stressful day at work".
