Today on The Aid Station we meet Chi Nguyen, in Ho Chi Minh, Vietnam.
Chi shares the remarkable story of the rising star of her running career that has coincided with massive growth of the industry in Vietnam over the past decade. It started for her about nine years ago as a trail runner and has quickly evolved into major city marathons. She is already half way to her dream of becoming the first Vietnamese woman to achieve Abbot World Marathon Majors six star status with finishes in New York, Boston and Berlin already alongside her name.
COVID-19 postponed her Tokyo run earlier this year and she is currently in training for back-to-back weekends in London and Chicago in October.
Off the road Chi has her hands full as Managing Director of Havas Vietnam which involves looking after "a team of people that are mostly half my age" Supporting them and retaining talent is one of her key focuses right now and that involves giving "I'm a giver in life and in work - paying forward is really important to me" she says
