As the 2024 Coca Cola Cola Games kicks off today, defending girls’ champions, Adi Cakobau School will no doubt be remembering their former sprinter Alena Vadrasamu who passed away over the weekend after a long battle with cancer.
Vadrasamu was laid rest to rest yesterday.
Her daughter, Lice Kurisaru who farewelled her mother in Nadroga yesterday will run for ACS in the sub-junior girls 100 metres event today.
She is also taking part in the 200 metres and 4x100 metres relay events.
The late Vadrasamu was part of the record-breaking 4×100 metres senior girls relay team with Sera Tuinalase, Kelera Tabakaucoro and Alisi Naqiri in the 2008 Coca Cola Games.
The record of 49.14 seconds still stands.
