After last year I have great ‘winning’ memories from Seoul and Lotte Tower. It is the longest race on the entire calendar but now I’m feeling very comfortable at such distances. My shape is very good at the moment so I will come to Korea for the third time – confident and hungry for success! See you on the 123rd floor of Lotte Tower!
