2018 has been a good year for Lerato Sechele... |
The next major
target for Lesotho’s triple jump record holder Lerato Sechele is next year’s All
Africa Games and IAAF World Championships.
The 12th
African Games will take place in October 2019 in Casablanca, Morocco while the
2019 World Championships will be held next September in Doha, Qatar.
2018 has been
a good year for Sechele.
In July she
won bronze at the African Senior Championships in Nigeria.
In April, Sechele
finished fourth at the 2018 Gold Coast Commonwealth Games in Australia and set
a new Lesotho triple jump record of 13.57 metres in the process.
Next on her to-do
list is to win gold at the African Games and to qualify for the World
Championships for the first time.
“I have
started preparing for the World Championships and All Africa Games,” Sechele
said.
“I am aiming
for a gold medal at the All Africa Games and to qualify for World Champs. This year’s
African Senior Championships were my first one and I am happy and motivated to
get more medals.”
