Running the Race of Life

Fondly known as the “Flying Doctor” for burning up asphalt on the running tracks,  Dr. Mani Jegathesan was regarded as the fastest man in Asia during the golden era of 1960s Malaysian sports. He was also the top academic student in Singapore.

The renowned doctor and researcher explores the questions: Is it really possible to have your cake and eat it too? What does it take to juggle and excel in two seemingly disparate passions in your life, and are we willing to pay the price to do so?

Join Tan Sri Dr. Mani Jegathesan as he shares his formula of success through the 4Ds of direction, determination, dedication and discipline, and how that applies in everything from sports, medicine, to life.
