Surprised no one covered Carifta '25. Very good meet and the gap between JA and the other nations is closing. It is clear that the coaching in The Eastern Caribbean (mostly Leewards/Windwards) has improved a lot. St. Lucia has another young lady sprint star on the horizon. Hope she gets a scholarship like her compatriot Ms. Alfred. Hoping too that The Bajan Ms. Nurse who ran a stunning 400m relay leg gets a scholarship to the US or A Yard campus with top coaches. Nice to see 'Misfit/TriniBagoans' sisters going home to rep the land of their parents (as Brianna Williams did for Yard). Granite T&F is alive and well in TNT, it is just for the talent to be found and nurtured. Notice two brothers running and their lil sister training hard too.

In reply to mikesiva



that is patently false. she jogged the ENTIRE 400. the moment she got out of the blocks, she was jogging. the commentators were puzzled. she was not running hard then slowed down. that would be understandable. i can only surmise that she was injured from before, but they had no one else so she tried to run

Of note, we did not field a team in the second chance race on Sunday. I can only surmise that there were no other 400 m runners there. Actually, Jodean is not even a 400 M runner herself so i guess only the administrators know what was going on.

At what point the race? Must be right at the gun, because she jogged from start to finish!
