PETALING JAYA: A specialised sprint programme, dubbed B10 (below 10), will be one of the projects that will start under the newly elected Malaysian Athletics (MA) president Datuk Karim Ibrahim.

Reflecting on Malaysia’s solitary bronze medal at the recent Asian Track and Field Championships, Karim stressed the need to overhaul the current approach to athlete preparation.
