I am back from Berlin, Germany. I had a great time hanging out with my athlete’s friends. I know I didn’t perform as well as I wanted to but I believe the lack of experience and training played a big role in my poor performance (10.51 – 5th in the 12th heats of the 100M) . I remain positive, and I know that my time will come. I just have to be patient and train harder. A lot of people expected me to be part of the Swiss 4x100M relay but the Swiss sprint coach felt like it was better not to include me in it. I do feel very fortunate to have made it this far. I am aware that many athletes dream of making it to the World Championships. My season is not over yet. I plan on running the 100M this Friday at the Zurich Weltklasse, one of the biggest track meet in the world. I wont be running in the 100M “A” race but most likely the “C” race.

Thank you all for your support during the World Championships. I really appreciated it. Special congratulation to Mickael Hanany (5th in the final of the High Jump) and Charles Clark (6th in the final of the 200M). Here are some pictures taken during the Championships:

Saturday August the 1st, I will be running the 100M and attempting to win my first senior Swiss Champion title. I won the Junior and the Under 23 titles many times but was never able to win the senior title. This will also be a good test to see in what kind of shape I am two weeks before the World Championship. My last race was June the 14th in Miami (10.28). I feel very good despite the long trip and the hours spent at the airports in-between flights. I have been resting, enjoying the family and my mom’s food . The Swiss Championship will take place in Zurich which is about three hours away from Geneva.
Here is the link to the Swiss Championship organisator’s website. I have three rounds of the 100M on Saturday and two rounds of the 200M. My main goal will be to win the 100M title. I will keep my readers posted on my results. Keep me in your prayers
