Lifetime Asia teams up with Canon, offering prominent social media influencer, Yeoh Mong Chin a chance to push her boundaries as she attempts to finish six races in six countries over eight weeks. It seems impossible, but this rookie runner is not alone. In each country, she’ll meet musicians, food bloggers, and fashion designers… people from all walks of life who will inspire and help her in her journey.
From designing the coolest leggings on the planet and indulging in the most deliciously healthy natural food, to learning the movements of Balinese dance, each encounter provides bursts of inspiration as Mong conquers dirt roads, highlands, grasslands and pavements. With their support, she hopes to complete the challenge and inspire people everywhere to get moving!
But the reality of an influencer’s life is that the work never stops – content that resonates with her more than 150,000 followers needs to be generated regularly. In between race training comes the task of discerning trends and interesting Instagrammable activities, scoping out the best spots for a photo shoot, and meeting other influencers in the region.
