JOHN POMPEY, ORGANIZER OF THE GOLDEN MILE HAS GIVEN BACK TO TWO LOCAL TRACK CLUBS. ON TUESDAY SEPTEMBER 14TH, 2021, MICHAEL BISCETTE OF ROAD BUSTERS AND JEANO HENRY OF SP SURVIVORS RECEIVED A BARREL OF GOODS HANDED OVER BY HIS DAUGHTERS SERIEANA AND CHELSEE POMPEY.
POMPEY NOTED THAT THE TWO CLUBS HAVE PLAYED AN IMPORTANT PART IN HIS DEVELOPMENT AS AN ATHLETE AND WISHED TO ASSIST YOUNG ATHLETES FROM THESE CLUBS WITH GROCERY ITEMS AND GEAR.
THE CLUBS WISH TO THANK POMPEY FOR HIS CONTRIBUTION AS THERE ARE MANY ATHLETES IN NEED AT THE MOMENT. THE GROCERY ITEMS WILL GO A LONG WAY IN HELPING SOME OF THE ATHLETES AND PARENTS WHO ARE NOT ABLE TO AFFORD IT, ESPECIALLY DURING THIS PANDEMIC.
AS PRESIDENT AND FOUNDER OF THE GOLDEN MILE AND AS A FORMER ATHLETE POMPEY SAYS IT IS ALWAYS HIS PLAN TO GIVE BACK TO THOSE THAT ARE IN NEED NOTING THAT HE REMEMBERS THE TIME WHEN HE HAD LITTLE OR NOTHING TO EAT.
FORMER INTERNATIONAL ATHLETE MAKEBA ALCIDE IS NOW THE PRO OF THE ATHLETICS ASSOCIATION AND A COACH, AND SHE SAYS THAT THE DONATION IS MUICH NEEDED AND VERY WELCOME.
DURING THE GLOBAL PANDEMIC, THE POMPEY GOLDEN MILE HAS SINCE TURNED VIRTUAL AND THE 2021 ACTIVITY WAS HELD ON MAY 1ST, 2021 WHERE MICHALE BISCETTE WAS NAMED CHAMPION. THE NEXT GOLDEN MILE CHALLENGE WILL BE HELD IN OCTOBER, 2021.
ALL YOU NEED TO DO IS USE A PHONE OR WATCH TO TRACK YOUR TIME TO COVER THE MILE, UPLOAD YOUR RESULTS AND AFTER THE DEADLINE THE TIMES WILL BE RANKED, WITH THE TOP THREE FINISHERS RECEIVING PRIZES.
REGISTRATION INFORMATION WILL BE MADE AVAILABLE AT A LATER DATE.
