Blue Dragon Charity Update: February 2024
Steve’s has now achieved his goal of running a 100km ultra trail race. He was 13th overall at the Vietnam Mountain Marathon (VMM) in Sapa 2023. Recapping 2023, Steve ended up running more than 2000 km including completing his first 42km, 70km and 100km ultra trail mountain races. He will continue to train on the peaks of Soc Son and on the streets around Park City Hanoi and any hill or mountain he can find in his travels. In January 2024, Steve returned to where he ran his first 42 km ultra one year ago, The Vietnam Trail Mountain(VTM) race in Moc Chau, and he was looking for a top ten finish in the 70 km race. Struggling a bit in a very strong field of runners he finished 20th male and 26th overall and 7th in his age category.

SEAN BURNS “Sơn”

Born in 1989, Sean grew up in Durban, South Africa and spent a lot of his time after school playing sports (you name the sport, he’s played it), swimming, being active in clubs, and learning to play the drums.

His passion for pushing limits came early on in his schooling where he completed the 55km Thomas More Long Walk at the age of 12 (grade 7). In the following years (age 13, 14, and 15), he completed the 55km once more and then the 88km distance back-to-back with his best time being 13 hours at age 15. He assumes that this early exposure to testing his physical and mental capabilities has stuck with him since then.
