Yesterday Belizean athletes again competed in the Athletics portion of the Commonwealth Games, but neither Kaina Martinez nor Kenneth Medwood advanced.
Martinez competed in the 200 meter sprint, placing 4th of 7 runners with a time of 24.54.
Kenneth Medwood, however, was unable to participate in his 400 meter hurdles due to the flare up of an old injury. Brandon Jones competes in the Triple Jump tomorrow.
But while Belize did not fare too well in the Athletics Competition, one of our cyclists had a fair showing in the Individual Time Trials. Giovanni Lovell finished in 58:21, placing 29th out of 60 cyclists. That's in the middle of the pack, but he was the second best amongst all riders from the Caribbean.
Joel Borland placed 41st out of 60. 4 Belizean riders will continue on Sunday where they will compete in the Road Race.
