Is there a song that motivates you?
Jia Xuan: I think my favourite running song is "Cruel Summer" by Taylor Swift right now.
Are you going to the Taylor Swift concert next week?
Jia Xuan: Yes I am going twice - first one is on Sunday, and the second time will be on Thursday, I can't wait!
What is the proudest accomplishment in your life?
Jia Xuan: I think my proudest accomplishment in my life will be running a full marathon, which I am aiming to do this year in Gold Coast, Australia.
What kind of people do you get your energy from and where do you find them?
Jia Xuan: What motivates me to run, especially when I am super tired are group runs. I join running clubs like Superhero Runners, Fast and Free Running Club - these clubs are people who are super motivating. When you feel like giving up, the rest of the people are still running so you don't really feel like dropping out.
What is one resolution last year you did not fulfill?
Jia Xuan: One resolution last year I did not fulfill was running a full marathon. So I am doing it again this year.
At what time in your life did you have your greatest breakthrough?
Jia Xuan: I think the biggest breakthrough was competing in a half marathon. I never thought I would do it, and I did it again so I am very proud of myself for that.
