From sacrificing her job to pursue triathlon, to sharing tips for beginners and the spirit of races like the MetaSprint Series, Rachel Longstaff's love for triathlon shines. Watch her full interview here.

Coming off fresh from another successful season where she defended her half marathon titles at the Singapore Marathon and Great Eastern Women's Run as well as setting new national records, Vanessa Lee shared that she is excited to be working with a fun group of people, and underlined the importance of support for athletes in Singapore. "It's very exciting. This group of people here are very fun to work with, and they are very nice people, very on the ball. So I am very excited to start working with them," she shared with SportPlus.sg. "Any kind of support would help an athlete in Singapore, especially as it's SEA Games year this year. I definitely want to be a lot more performance focused, hit some personal bests (PB) and qualify for the SEA Games, so it (PUMA's parntership) is very beneficial and a lot of support to help me reach my goals for this year."

In an exclusive interview with SportPlus.sg, Shaun Goh shared: "I am definitely feeling very excited to be part of the PUMA family. It's quite humbling to be able to represent one of the more established and legacy brands as PUMA. It is also one of my first brand sponsors so I am excited to make the most of this opportunity." When asked on the top tier support he will be receiving as an athlete Shaun replied, "It's really awesome that we can have access to such resources, knowledge and technology. It feels very empowering, especially for us Southeast Asian Athletes. It will really help us bridge that performance gap between us and the rest of the world. And it gives me motivation to show PUMA that I am worthy of this opportunity, to thank them for taking a chance on me."

Singapore IRONMAN record holder Ben Khoo was quite the academic who did a lot of research on the brand before deciding to sign on the dotted line. Speaking with SportPlus.sg the Singapore Marathon 2024 runner-up opened up saying: "To be honest, funny thing was I went to read up on PUMA, and went through their entire investor relations deck, read through their annual report." "They have been delivering on what they've promised on running since 2011. They said they were going to deliver a performance shoe and they delivered a performance shoe. They said they were going to grow their running community, and they grew their running community overseas, so they stick to their promises. So it's really exciting to see how PUMA is going to grow the Singapore running community and I would love to be a part of that."
