With triathlete Matthew Wright already in Europe, along with 400-metre runner Sada Williams, the other two athletes on team Barbados for the Paris Olympic Games have also arrived in that part of the world to continue preparations.
Speaking during Sunday’s ‘The People’s Business’ talk show on CBC TV8, the BOA’s senior office administrator Gail Craig-Archer, said swimmer Jack Kirby arrived in France while sprinter Tristan Evelyn touched down in Italy last night.
Meanwhile, Wright who is in Wales, says he has already switched his training to prepare for a mid-week triathlon.
Olympic Games Analyst Michael Jules noted that outside of Williams, the realistic goals of the other athletes will not be to medal.
First Vice President of the Athletics Association of Barbados, Dr. June Caddle, urged Barbadians to look beyond the medals.
