The reigning women’s national 400 metres hurdles champion now joins fellow national champion Ackera Nugent and national 400 metres record holder Roshawn Clarke as Jamaicans who’ve already signed up for the four meet series.
The new global track league was launched this year American track and field legend Michael Johnson.
