Tavua College athlete, Yeshnil Karan says he is ready to represent Fiji in the Pacific Games.
Karan caused two major upsets in the 2019 Coca Cola Games as he beat the favourite, Petero Veitaqomaki of Marist Brothers High School in the 3000 metres and the Senior Boys 1500 metres.
Karan has dedicated his wins to his parents who unfortunately were not able to travel to Suva due to the weather.
Karan says one of the difficulties he endured during the training was the rainy weather in Yaladro, Tavua.
He says he was confident that he will do something great.
Karan had won the 10 kilometres Suva Marathon Race last year.
Meanwhile, Athletics Fiji’s Albert Miller says it will be good to have an athlete like Karan in the team.
Miller also adds that if Karan makes the qualification time for the Pacific Games, it will be easier to make a case to Team Fiji.
