Nabil (EFR 13) and Fadhlul (EFR 3) reached Hampshire Business Suite, very early in the morning to catch the slots. Hampshire Business Suite is the 3rd registration location to be revealed by the organiser. It's perk enable the team to get token in their hands, even before the event begins, but only if that team survive the race.

MPIB Run 2013: Kick start our year 2013

Event: MPIB Run 2013
Date: 6 January 2013, Sunday
Time: 7am
Venue: Padang Merbok, KL
Distance: 12KM, 8KM & 5KM

Perhaps due to many EFRs joined Newton 2012 at the end of last year, not many of us ran this event. Fadh (EFR 3) & Harun (EFR 31) hit 12KM, Shuhid (EFR 7) & Hana (EFR 25) took down the 8KM challenge, and Ikhwan (EFR 1) had his 5KM only this time. 

Not much we could say here. As expected, it is an awesome event. Good organisers. So happening with lots of sponsors' tent which coloured the day. PB for Fadh, Harun, Shuhid & Kak Hana! I think it is a cool thing to start your 2013 running year with MPIB Run 2013.

Here are the snapshots of the event:

EYKL in IAFG 2012

Before we move on to the very inviting year 2013, the admin would like to conclude about EYKL (especially EFR members) in Inter Audit Firm Games (IAFG) 2012. We have done a great job this year. Although we were unable to retain No. 1 spot (overall champion last year in 2011), but to be the 2nd best is still an awesome job bro! KPMG is only 1 point ahead of us. Aduihhh...sikit lagi bro. Anyway, Good Luck in 2013!

Athletics (2nd runner-up) - Most EFRs are here
Tug of War (2nd runner-up) - EFR 3, EFR 5, EFR 6
Football Men (Champion) - EFR 14
