How I Got into Running and Nutrition

Mile & Bite

So how did I get into health coaching?

 

It started with running the miles for my first marathon in 2017, which led me to embark on a personal health journey and eventually becoming a certified health coach with the Institute for Integrative Nutrition. 

 

I am a marathon finisher of NYC Marathon 2017 and 2019, Chicago 2018, Nara 2018 and 2023, Hong Kong 2019, Da Nang 2019 and Berlin 2023. In January 2024, I completed the Green Power Hike which was a lovely route covering the entire Hong Kong Trail from the Peak to Big Wave Bay.

 

Other than running, I would volunteer at a few local races, which allows me to explore some beautiful trails and enjoy the unique skyline of Hong Kong
