Bahamian elite athletes get on the track Shaunae Miller-Uibo. FILE
A number of Bahamian elite athletes were on the track on Sunday, taking part in the Pure Athletics Spring Invitational at the Orlando Health National Training Center (NTC) in Clermont, Florida.
In the women’s 200 meters (m), Shaunae Miller-Uibo was as impressive as ever, opening up in 22.03 seconds. Legally, it was her fastest season opener ever. She ran a windy 21.90 seconds at the same meet in 2017.
Sporting blonde hair, Pure Athletics athlete Miller-Uibo got out of the blocks quickly, straightened up and made up the stagger on American Fe Edwards who was a lane ahead of her. Miller-Uibo powered to the front and came home comfortably in 22.03. American Quanera Hayes, representing Life Speed Athletics out of Minneola, Florida, finished second in that heat, and was second overall, in 22.68 seconds. American Lynna Irby, from Pure Athletics, was third overall in 22.75 seconds.
