The story of Norma Bastidas is one of triumph over tragedy. She is a woman whose resilience has allowed her to overcome the unthinkable misfortunes life has thrown her way. When she was 49, she set the world triathlon record covering an incredible 3,762 miles. Her epic journey began in Cancun, Mexico, and ended in Washington, D.C., and took her 64 days to complete. She did it as her stand against human trafficking. Today, on The Evening Edition, Umapagan Ampikaipakan caught up with Norma Bastidas when she was here in Malaysia for ICLIF's Leadership Energy Summit Asia 2016, and spoke to her about her remarkable journey.
