Kenyan runners ruled the Penang Second Bridge at Asics Penang Bridge International Marathon last Sunday, 16th November 2014, when they came out tops in all Full Marathon (42km) categories, including all top 15 positions in the Men's Open, which was won by Alex Melly in 2:19:49.6. The Women's Open was won by Frida Jepkite Lodepa in 3:04:11.3. The APBIM2014 which was run for the very first time on the Sultan Abdul Halim M'uadzam Shah Bridge (Penang Second Bridge), saw a record of more than 60,0000 registered runners competing this year, although it looked like nearly the whole of Penang may have turned up for a chance to venture over the bridge on foot. The marathon was officially started off by Penang's Chief Minister YB Lim Guan Eng at 1.30 am in the morning, with the prestigious Men's Open competitors heading out first.
Kenyan farmer Alex Melly first runner to reach the finish line at the APBIM2014.
