UltraMarathon

Yes! Dr William Tan completed his 24 hour UltraMarathon and did 607 rounds of the track (243.0076km, new world record). There were many people down there supporting him and I went there thrice- 6 to 8 (30), 10.30 to 11.45 (30)and from 4.45 to 5.30 (31) and I ran 10 or 11 rounds in total. The atmosphere was wonderful, even at night. Dr Tan was truly an inspirational chractor to the school and I. I bought a lot of foodstuffs and a twenty dollar signed poster with a bag. The shirts were all sold out besides the XL at 11.30 pm and all were sold out when I went back the next day at 4.45 pm. There were signed T-shirts by Dr. Tan for auction and I heard that the highest bid was $555. He finally completed his run at exactly 5 pm according to the clock tower and everybody was cheering him on which shows the Rafflesian spirit. Then he had a 'press conference' after his run and we asked him some questions. What surprised me was that no news channel has reported this amazing feat yet (10.30 pm, 31 July). Mabye he wants to keep this a secret until he gets his Guinness World Record. And a final word before signing off, I would like to say, "Thank You Dr. Tan for being asuch an inspirational role model for us. Keep on going!"
