Zara A. Brown finishes 4th in 100m semi-finals in Cali
Speaking after the event, the 19-year old sprinter said “I feel okay about the race. As a season opener, it gives me a chance to see where I am and what I have to work on going forward - both for indoor and outdoor. It’s been a good experience for me and I can’t wait to be back!”
According to a press release from the BVI Olympic Committee (BVIOC), VI Coach Ralston Henry noted that this was Zara’s first race after being laid off for so long and a good race for opening the Season early.
“I am looking forward to a lot more to come later in the Season and ahead of the Commonwealth Games,” he said.
8 competitors will race in the women’s 100m finals on December 1, 2021.
