A dame to run for! Sin City star Jamie Chung sets new personal record after completing the Nike Marathon in Paris

Jamie Chung knows how to keep her enviable figure in the best shape.
And on Sunday, the Sin City: A Dame To Kill For star displayed her athleticism during the Nike Paris Centre 10k Marathon.
The makeup-free 31-year-old reached the finish line with her best personal record of just under 49 minutes for an impressive race.

Jamie showed off her toned physique in a pair of tight black spandex shorts and matching sports tank top with a lightweight grey sweater tied around her waist.
The actress let her natural skin glow and appeared barefaced as she had her long brunette tresses pulled back tightly in a high ponytail.
To complete her outfit, she sported bright purple Nike running shoes for supportive and fancy footwear.

Following her sporty accomplishment, she took to her Instagram account to share several pictures from the marathon event.
In a message, Jamie wrote: 'Eye on the prize (aka the finish line)! Official time for 10k 48:50!! Woohoo!!'
The Big Hero 6 star is also training for another Nike 10k which will be held in the States in San Francisco, California on October 19.

In another shot, she took a snap of her silver medal for crossing the finish line along with a time stamp of her official completion.
'Pain is temporary. But that was challenging! Quit possibly the most beautiful run thru Paris! #trainharder #nike, ' she said in the caption.
Throughout the entire run, Jamie had a supportive group of friends who ended the marathon with her as seen in one of her many photos.

Back in 2013 when Jamie was training for her first Nike SF 10k Marathon she revealed to Glamour how she prepped her workout training for the big race.
'I love running! I would run Monday, Tuesday, Friday and Saturdays and rotate a spin class, Pilates, vinyasa flow power yoga or boxing into my Wednesday cross-training days,' she shared. 'Thursday's were active rest days, and on Sundays I was told to go on hour-long power walks to flush out my legs.'
She also added what was her most challenging part about training: 'Finding the time to go for that long run amidst traveling and work. These long runs took up an average 2.5 hours, which is a lot of time spent running/working out! It was the most satisfying feeling to complete the weekly training schedule without missing a day.'
And for runners looking to participate in their first ever marathon, Jamie advises to set small goals. 'Set achievable goals. Increase your runs weekly by adding five to ten minutes to each run and work up to a steady pace.'
