BTS, who are currently on the US leg of their ARIRANG World Tour, have been playing back-to-back shows across states since the end of April. Their latest stop was Stanford, where they played to a sold-out Stanford Stadium for three consecutive nights.

Amid this packed schedule, Suga somehow was also able to finish a 12 km marathon, that too on the very day of a show. The story was revealed to fans by BTS members J-Hope and RM while they were hosting a livestream recently, along with Jimin and V.

During the broadcast, when some fans asked why Suga was seen limping at their recent concert, the members amusingly revealed that on the day of their concern, the rapper woke up at 6 am and ran the Bay to Breakers marathon!

As fans dug deeper, they realized that Suga actually completed the marathon ranking in the 5% of the total 26,545 runners.

Out of 26,545 runners, Min Yoongi ranked 1,207th (top 5% of over 26,000 runners) at the Bay to Breakers 12K. He finished 12 kilometers in 01.04.43! pic.twitter.com/2hfePT2FJ1

As much fun as Suga might have had his with the marathon, he possibly couldn’t have had his fill more than what ARMYs are having with this newfound information about him.
