🇧🇼 Here's what 200m Olympic champ Letsile Tebogo had to say after anchoring Botswana to 4x400m silver in 43.04, the 3rd-fastest split in history:
On potentially running the 400m in the future:
“I believe next year it’s something that is going to happen because there’s not much events to happen. I believe maybe we’ll try the 400 next year, or maybe the 100 and 400, we’ll see. We just want to play around with the events, because maybe the 400 is where I belong, who knows. Nobody knows.”
“I jokingly say I want to split a 42 leg. But if I do 43.0, it means a lot to everybody. It means we are in the best shapes of our life.”
