Alex Au-Yong (Art Director/Hero runner) managed to finish his 100km solo run. He started off his journey at approximately 6pm at Putrajaya. This run involves 1 Man, 10 Suburbs, 100 km and 16 hours. For someone to finish the whole race, not only it takes practice, but also strength, endurance and optimism.
You can view more happenings of the journey here.
Once again, we should congratulate him and this made the Xtramile Charity Event successful.
