Letsile Tebogo 🇧🇼 was too fed up to bother to run 100m Semi Final 😂/ Douala 24 Africa Championships 

It’s really complex. I ran in the lower ranks, AAU/USATF/High School/College/USATF as an adult, and each level is so different. As a junior, we can do so many things a certain way, and even when I “felt something”, I still ran and won. On the College/World Class level, it’s so different…we start to do things that maximize output for our entire body, which requires everything to be perfect because we are putting it all on the line and letting our bodies kinda run in auto-pilot. The head, the neck, the back, the arms, the knees the feet, the toes, the fingers, the breathing location and amount of breaths at a certain time, the necessary relaxation, the mindset of on what we focus, the counting of our steps, the all of this is a big deal when running world class! We see clearly in the 200M more than anything how the best 200M runner can lose a race and be WAY behind, then come back days later and leave the entire field by that distance. Also, we see 22.3, 22.4, and suddenly, next day they run 21.7 in the 200M for this very reason. Every single little tiny thing matters, and the different between a gold medal and last place is something very small in the execution, not necessarily an issue of talent. When we feel something, we’ve gotta be smart and shut it down because it could be many years or potentially a lifetime of decline from injury.

This and other problems leads to Africa losing talent to European countries. France national football team is a good example

⁠@@bradc7002what are you talking about? only 2 players from the euro 2024 squad were born in africa and then chose to represent france. that’s camavinga and the third goalkeeper samba. it’s not like the whole squad is made from talent stolen from africa.

whoa is this True? I never Knew this That's Crazy

@@ofitlhileruxralenyena1230 that’s not he was always going to represent england

Indictment

yes

@@LesegoMakwati what abt the 200?

@@korlns he is running both the 100 and 200

yes it's true

What's crazy is how the video of semifinal 3 is online, but the part where he gets disqualified has been removed, almost as if he never went there. Very odd. There seems to be a lot of discrimination in Athletics organizations in Africa.

@@Binahx86 The problem is, there has not been any official coverage of the events😔😔.. The level of disorganisation there is doo heartbreaking. Can you believe it that, in one race,there were no starter gun 🔫, and they had to set off athletes by clapping pairs of wood😥😥...

@@atarsebele22 Is it?

@@temogogaelekane7788 Obviously it's way more worse than what we see on our screens..Hence why other athletes pulled out

🤣🤣🤣which medicrity bro🤣🤣🤣🤣

@@user-wb3iv8cq9m in one of the races there was no gun 😂😂😂 they had to clap wood planks 😂😂

@@tondetanditonny802 no ways, there was no gun?🤣🤣😭😭

@@tondetanditonny802 yo what 🤣

@@laboriousTwala they blew a whistle 😂😂😂

When he gets injured because of incompetence, where will you be? There is always a difference between humble and stupid

The disorganisation you think he is being cocky about has costed the 4*100m national team an opportunity to compete at the Olympics. Humility is not shying away from the facts, get that right!!!

Funny that you are not addressing what he is concerned about, which was facts! Turned out the 4*100m national team missed on the opportunity to compete at the Olympics because the event was not up to the standard of the WAA.

I mean with all due respect, did you have the same achievements he has now that by chance you could have been on TV? You know why he has the attention, it's basic stuff.
