El 17 de enero, tambi\u00e9n dimos la bienvenida a nuestro equipo de atletas al velocista ol\u00edmpico Kemar Bailey Cole, de nuestra asociaci\u00f3n jamaicana de atletismo.\nCon la incorporaci\u00f3n de estos siete nuevos talentos, todos ellos de entre 21 y 23 a\u00f1os, continuamos con nuestro compromiso con el pa\u00eds caribe\u00f1o.
