"I am so encouraged that many people joined me in the run. On the micro blog and WeChat, I saw lots of people who never ran before trying to follow my steps," Chen said.

"It might be a small step forward. But I believe more people in the country will become running fans. I hope to see that people, maybe 500 million, will join us," he said.
