TRAILME: What is your running theme?
Jessie: Follow my own pace.
TRAILME: What is the most memorable experience in your trail running journey?
Jessie: My most memorable race was The Beast Trail 50k. It was described as “the hardest race in Asia” which has very technical trail and lots of elevation in the deep forest in Taiwan. The finish rate was less than 30% in the past. I struggled to fight the cut off time at every check point and managed to arrive the last check point just 3 minutes before it was closed. I am proud of myself for not giving up until the last minute and finished the race in the end.
TRAILME: How do you keep yourself updated with the upcoming race information?
Jessie: From Facebook, friends’ network.
TRAILME: How do using sports apps or other wearables assist you in trail running?
Jessie: Sport watch is convenient as we can get lots of performance info spontaneously. And they are waterproof, so we don’t have to worry about raining. Strava has leaderboard so you can compare your performance with others.
