Veteran race walker, Rudolph Mitchell sustained an injury to his foot forcing him out of the walk race organized by the Cavalier’s Sports and Tour Club (CSTC) on Sunday November 15 last.
Another seasoned race walker, Maurice Fagundes took advantage of Mitchell’s absence and walked away with the top prize in that event leaving Debidyal Harold and Donna Ramkissoon in his wake. Those two ended up in the second and third positions, respectively.
Junior race walker, Ivelaw Charles romped home first in his category followed by Glayson Ralph and Dan Charles, in that order.
The race walkers competed for trophies and medals donated by Managing Director of Bacchus Mining Company, Royston Bacchus while the management of Tower Hotel provided water and other refreshments for the competitors.
