Sprinter Samwel Kimani led the charge by winning gold in the men’s T11 100m, guided by his faithful guide, James Boit. His victory was a testament to years of dedication and teamwork. Elsewhere, veteran athlete Nancy Koech secured a silver medal in the women’s T11 400m, while young starless Catherine Wanjiru announced her arrival on the global stage with a bronze in the women’s T46 400m.
