BASSETERRE, St. Kitts – KIM COLLINS once again blazed down the 100m track in Zagreb, Croatia to claim his second silver in two days, this time at a time of 10.14 secs
It was the IAAF World Challenge Meet in Zagreb which took place on Tuesday, September 4 2012. The Games have been taking place for some sixty years but from 1997 world athletic stars started to attend and have been increasing every year.
The results of the 100m in which Collins participated were as follows:
1. BAILEY Ryan USA 10.02 secs
2. COLLINS Kim SKN 10.14
3. FORSYTHE Mario JAM 10.25
4. PATTON Darvis USA 10.31
5. FRATER Michael JAM 10.31
6. SPEARMON Wallace USA 10.32
7. KIMMONS Trell USA 10.33
In advertising the Meet the sponsors had this to say when introducing Collins:
“Very few athletes boast four consecutive appearances at Olympic Games and eight at world championships. Even less have had the honour of having their portrait on two postage stamps of their country, and probably no country celebrates their athletes as St. Kitts and Nevis takes pride in Kim Collins.”
It is with great pride that we, at SKNVibes again send heartiest congratulations to our own Kim Collins. Long may he reign!
Zagreb is the capital and the largest city of the Republic of Croatia with a population of approximately 804 000.
