BROOKS HALF MARATHON 2014 - 9 MARCH 2014

Bukit Jalil is well known for its hills. Brooks Half Marathon, being held here, is one of the most challenging race in Kuala Lumpur. The haze has threatened the race to be cancelled at the last minute and it was great news to everyone when the race was finally announced ON! Despite the hills, all our runners did well. 6 on the podium and many did their personal best especially Yee Joon Kit and Soo Chin Nang who shaved off more than 30 minutes off from their last 21km.  Congratulations to them and all who has completed the race!
