Azri Is Middle-Distance King in Inter-Investment Bank Meet 2010

My friend and ex-colleague has managed to collect 2 gold medals in the just concluded Malaysian Investment Banking Association (MIBA) Athletics Meet. From a casual jogger to becoming a champion in just a matter of less than 3 years. He also had an operation to his knee in early 2009, and clocked a 3:57:47 (SCKLM 09) later in the year, in his first attempt in the  marathon distance. He went on to clock a better time at this year's SCKLM with a time of 3:47:50. I think this is his 4th attempt in marathon.  His determination is hard to match and that's how he got to where he is today. Congrats Azri!

Eerr, cause I seriously don't know who came in second. Would have put his name if I knew. Haha. Wasn't meant to disregard him.
