Our Muslim athletes ramp up training during fasting month


Impressive feat: Zaidatul Husniah Zulkifli broke the 24-year-old 100m national record of 11.50 set by G. Shanti in 1993.

PETALING JAYA: This may be the Ramadan month, but you won’t see our Muslim athletes – bound for the KL SEA Games in August – taking it easy.

If anything, these athletes, who have been fasting from Saturday, have been ramping up their training sessions in preparation for the Games, which will be held from Aug 19-30.
