Dear Editor,
In watching the opening ceremony of the IAAF World Championships, I was awe-struck by the Chinese performance. Beijing was splendidly showcased and reflected, the many thousand man-hours poured into planning, designing, organising and executing same. Take a bow, Beijing, it was a fantastic display.
The Jamaican athletes electrified the Championships. We had the scintillating Usain Bolt, the dynamo Shelly Ann Fraser-Pryce, and the meteorite Danielle Williams. The top performing and veteran co-captains Veronica Campbell- Brown and Asafa Powell motivated and held the team, resulting in three gold medals in the relays.
All the athletes represented us with distinction and gave the Lord prominence in their interviews. However, mention must be made of the warrior spirit of Novlene Williams- Mills and the American Aries Merritt. May the Lord keep them going forward.
Finally, God be praised and may we translate Beijing 2015 into every aspect of the Jamaican society.
