AFTER toiling for 57 hours and 45 minutes, four endurance athletes completed the Adventure Racing World Series (ARWS) race from Kuala Lumpur to Cherating, covering a distance of around 340km.

Team Altitude from the United States reached the finishing point, drenched in the rain, soiled and suffering from blisters and bruises but walked away with USD$5,000 (RM20,930) for their efforts.
