Some people are born talented,some people will have to earn it and most people may have some "thrust" upon them. When it comes to track and field that also holds true and Carifta 2007 was no exception.
In Providenciales,Turks and Caicos,the athletes from the RSTFC made the most of the opportunities given and made us proud.
OK,so pride of place will have to go to Ryan"Frenchydan" Brathwaite for his all conquering and Carifta shattering run in the Boys 110m hurdles again.This came after breaking the record he had set at last year's Carifta Games in Guadeloupe. Good job son!! If only ...................!! Also in that race another of our athletes ( the other R) ran a SB. Kudos!!
Kierre was third in her first full year in the seniors in the 100m hurdles. Kenrisha won two bronze medals as well in hurdles - 100m & 300m respectively.
Tyrell ran a PB in the Boys U-17 hurdles but had to settle for fourth place. It should be noted that the time he ran might've been good for a medal last year. Another year you have son,fret not.
Another medal for us came from long distance ace Christian Rock in the Boys 5000m Open. Good job!!
If there was a person on the team who might've surprised many with two remarkable times it would be Dario Alleyne.Not only did he run a SB in both the 100m & 200m races,but if our memory serves us well he hasn't run a 200m that fast in years. Work at it guy,there is more to come!!
Unfortunately it wasn't all good news as one of us got injured in their race and DNF. That is the way it goes in track and field.
Mention to Coach Babb for his efforts with the relay teams.
