    Now we talking. Much better than his last race. He'll have to get in the 46s to medal at the World Champs though.

    Kyron, well done and congratulations on the record!! Keep shooting for stars and representing the VI well, putting it on the map and securing its place in the sun among the titans with much larger populations and talent pool. You are demonstrating that the VI is small but it can soar with the BIG boys. We got your back so just keep gliding over the hurdles.
