Running influencer Eugene Lim<\/strong> has died at age 45 after getting married to his wife, Sofie Chandra<\/strong>, three days prior.<\/p>\n \u201cEug has passed on, a true legend, the love of my life,\u201d Chandra announced via Instagram on April 10. \u201cHis light will keep shining on and on.\u201d<\/p>\n Chandra previously shared photos from the couple\u2019s April 7 wedding, which showed them posing with their marriage certificate at Lim\u2019s bedside, adding that she \u201ccouldn\u2019t be more honored\u201d to be Lim\u2019s wife.<\/p>\n Lim was diagnosed with stage 4 urothelial bladder cancer in 2024 after experiencing symptoms for more than two years. The disease spread to his neck and lungs.<\/p>\n The rugby player and Muay Thai athlete initially noticed a dark color to his urine while running a full marathon in his apartment building\u2019s parking lot during the COVID-19 pandemic. He underwent a bladder test in 2022 but no abnormalities were found.<\/p>\n Lim intermittently experienced dark-colored urine over the next two years until he pushed for a battery of tests in 2024. At the time, Lim discovered that his urine was dark red while competing in a two-day, 50km charity run from Thailand to Singapore.<\/p>\n \u201cOddly enough, I was relatively calm by all measures for a few reasons,\u201d he told Parkway Cancer Center. \u201cI had time over the last four years to think about this. Obviously, when the urine discolouration first appeared, I read up a bit and knew the spectrum of what it could be.\u201d<\/p>\n He went on, \u201cAlso, my CT scan review was pushed up by a day, so I knew it was serious. I was already mentally prepared. I\u2019m someone who rarely fell sick, but I always thought that one day, I would probably face a serious illness. I just didn\u2019t expect it to happen this soon.\u201d<\/p>\n \t\t\t
