“I think I’m still recovering after running the Butler 20km Classic last Wednesday where I placed fourth. The weather condition was humid and I felt myself feeling much slower as the route progressed,” D’Andrade told this newspaper yesterday from Trinidad.
D’Andrade said that he will be resting for the upcoming CARICOM 10km race in Trinidad next weekend.
Meanwhile, Tonya Nero comfortably won the women’s 5km race on Saturday in 19:18, while Jenelle Nedd (20:02) and Kerticha John (20:13) was second and third.
