Canadian long jump star Christabel Nettey is aiming to cap an outstanding year so far with a place on the podium come Friday night.
“This season has been going pretty smoothly,” reflected Nettey. “Coming off the Nationals and my last two diamond league meets I have been resting up so I’m feeling fresh.”
“Practices have been going well over here in China. So I am feeling good and looking forward to Thursday.”
“It’s always exciting to represent Canada and compete on the senior teams. I am aiming just to go out there, do my best and show the world what Canada can do.”
“I came to the last worlds in Moscow. I was kinda just thrown in there. My PR at the time was the qualifying standard. I didn’t make day two that year but it’s different now.”
“I still have some meets after Beijing but it’s the world stage and I just want to go out there and do my best. I’m aiming to be on the podium and going for gold.”
