Diese Athleten werden unsere Marke bei den kommenden Weltmeisterschaften im August und, da sie noch jung sind, sicherlich bis zu den Olympischen Spielen 2020 in Tokio vertreten.\"\nPUMA engagiert sich seit langem f\u00fcr die jamaikanische Leichtathletik, und Jamaika ist ein gro\u00dfartiger Botschafter f\u00fcr unsere Marke, nicht nur wegen Usain Bolt.\nAm 17. Januar haben wir auch den olympischen Sprinter Kemar Bailey Cole von unserem Partner, dem jamaikanischen Leichtathletikverband, in unserer Athletenfamilie begr\u00fc\u00dft.\nMit der Unterzeichnung dieser sieben neuen Talente, die alle zwischen 21 und 23 Jahre alt sind, setzen wir unser Engagement in dem karibischen Land fort. Sie alle haben gute Chancen, in London auf dem Podium zu stehen - und im Sommer und dar\u00fcber hinaus weitere Erfolge zu erzielen!","status":"publish","password":"","name":"sieben-neue-jamaikanische-athleten-puma","modified":"2025-09-19 15:06:05","modified_gmt":"2025-09-19 15:06:05","content_filtered":"","parent":0,"type":"post","mime_type":"","template":"","category":[18],"datetime_local":"30.
