Ashley Liew - Gold Coast Marathon Feat lands Ashley a Life Time Award 2011 given on 13th March 2012.
Picture 1 - Ashley Liew told me that even though his dad was not around for the Award Ceremony, he definitely felt proud of his son's achievement.
While preparing for the Gold Coast Marathon 2012, Ashley Liew received his Life Time Award for Sports and Adventure for the year 2012 from Singapore Management University on 13 Mar 2012. This is a great piece of news for Flexifitness as Ashley Liew serves as a good role model for the children from the Young Champions' Programme to emulate. One could pursue sports as well as academics.
Last year, we also had another athlete from Flexifitness who won the SINDA Award for Sports Excellence (Long Distance Running), S. Jeevanesh, who broke the national schools' cross-country record doing 4.5km in 14min 57sec, breaking the earlier record of 15min 20sec. At present, he is training to do a sub - 36min for the 350 race in Singapore.
As for Ashley, it was found out that only two sportsmen qualified for the LIFE Award for Outstanding Achievement (Sports and Adventure) presented by Singapore Management University. Ashley told me that he is appreciative of Singapore Management University for presenting the award to him.
The only encouraging word I can tell Ashley for this Award is well done!
I even asked him on the coming AVIVA 70.3km Triathlon and he told me that he is preparing for the Texas Ironman which is the full distance as compared to AVIVA race, which covers only half the distance. Then the target is to go for the Gold Coast Marathon 2012. I am about to cover this race. Anyone who is aiming to do a good time should consider going to the Gold Coast. This is my take. The target set in Gold Coast marathon for Ashley Liew is to do a sub - 2hr 36min.
Ashley Liew - A good role model for young runners to emulate.
