If you think running a marathon is hard, try going for it in Thai costume. That’s exactly what MiYu—Charinya Kanchanasevee, a Thai dentist, is planning to do when she hits the race this Sunday in London, UK.  

Dentist MiYu will be running a full marathon of near 42 kilometres, with the expected duration of 3.40 hours. Her goal is to become the Guinness World Records’ “Fastest Marathon Dressed in Thai Traditional Dress.” A way to showcase the exquisite ensemble of beautiful Thai dress, physical wellness, and strong mind. Our hearts are with her!  

Thais in London are welcomed to gather and cheer for her at the spectator meeting point near Big Ben. For those elsewhere, you can watch it live on BBC One, BBC iPlayer, BBC Sport (web and app), April 23, 08:30-18:00 London time, or 14:30 Bangkok time.
