Injured Toon takes a break from charity run

By THE NATION

 

 

FAMOUS SINGER Artiwara Kongmalai, better known as Toon from Bodyslam, has been forced by health problems to take a short break from his charity run to raise funds for 11 hospitals.

 

Artiwara started running at 5.30am on Wednesday in Chumphon province but apparently showed signs of injuries later in the day.

 

At about 1pm, he stopped running and got on his team bus. 

 

An informed source said Artiwara would take a break from the charity run for a few days. “He should be able to start running again on Saturday,” the source said. 

 

In a bid to raise funds for 11 hospitals that need medical equipment, Artiwara has embarked on the run that kicked off in the southernmost province on November 1 and is scheduled to conclude in the northernmost province next month.

Is he a regular runner or did he just think he could do it without any training?

To be expected considering the immensity of the challenge he’s set himself. 

 

It’s amazing to see how much he’s already achieved.

Regular, he's done something similar (but not quite as big) before...

 

Ultimately such running will and has taken a huge toll on his body...  taking break is a smart move. 

 

Good luck to his recovery.
