Athletics season.

Athletics season began on the 1 August 2018. Our Athletes have been working very hard and so far have won most of their races. Oppose to last year the athletics team seems to be more serious to an extent where they even train on a Sunday.

I took time to interview one of covenant colleges best athletes, Lefika Molotsi in grade 10. Lefika has been training since last year December and hopes one day to become one of the top fastest people in the world.  The young man says running is like life and he enjoys it alot. His motivation comes from people who think he can’t reach his dream and his goal is to prove them wrong.

Lefika’s short term goals include running all the way to prestige and hopefully making it to nationals this year.  This  however hasn’t been an easy journey for the young man as he has been injured quiet a number of times. The highlight of his athletic season so far was being able to run 400m while injured and still managing to place third.

To Lefika and the other athletes I wish you all the best and I know you will represent the school well.
