Prudence Sekgodiso Equals Sa Mark, Tshepo Tshite Stars In Mile In France

It was a night to remember for South African athletics at the World Indoor Tour Gold meeting in Lievin, France on Thursday.

Olympic 800m finalist Prudence Sekgodiso continued her glorious charge in what is her first season on the indoor circuit as she equalled her SA record.

World indoor 800m champion Tsige Duguma of Ethiopia was just too good on the night, taking the honours in a time of one minute 59.02 seconds 1:59.02.

But she was closely followed by South Africas Sekgodiso, who clocked 1:59.88 to finish second and produce the same time she ran in winning the Karlsruhe event last week.

Happy with my second position. NR national record = couldnt be more proud, Sekgodiso posted on her Instagram stories.
