Fiji’s long distance runner Bimlesh Kumar has won his third medal at the Oceania Masters Championship in Australia after he settled for silver in the 1500 metres yesterday.
The 38-year-old earlier settled for silver in the 8km cross country event and a bronze medal in the 5000 metres.
Bimlesh Kumar paid $5,000 from his own pocket for the trip and the last time he represented Fiji was at the Pacific Mini Games in 2001.
The Nadi school teacher will take part in the 3,000 metres steeple-chase later today.
