SINGAPORE — Some former members of established local running club F1 Runners have lodged police reports against its founder, Lexxus Tan Swee Tiong, alleging that he duped them into lending him money and defaulted on payment.
In a blog post that has gone viral since it was posted on Tuesday (June 5), ex-member Cindy Ong, 35, alleged that a desperate Mr Tan had sought financial help from her husband Derrick Teng in November last year. This occured a night before Mr Tan, 46, was due to lead the runners on a overseas trip to participate in the Osaka Marathon on Nov 26.
Led by distance runner and head coach Tan, F1 Runners trains recreational athletes and enthusiasts in marathon and distance running. It also organises trips to overseas marathons for its members, who pay Mr Tan for running programmes with the club.
