[www.inewsguyana.com] – Overseas based distance athlete, Euleen Josiah-Tanner has clearly been in form this year with a number of wins her latest being on Saturday in Suriname at the second leg of the Telesur 10k.
Josiah-Tanner finished easily ahead of Guyana’s Andrea Foster and Suriname’s Ilsida Toemere in that order, now claiming both legs of the event. Local star Alika Morgan who finished third in the first leg on May 1 slipped to fourth this time around.
Josiah-Tanner was happy with the race but noted that she wanted to go a bit faster in the hot and windy conditions. However, she noted that getting the win was important as well.
