From football winger to world's top athlete, Letsile inspires young athletes

It’s strange how fortunes change. Career dreams are always shaped at childhood –with the hope of making it big.

But, like some top Kenyan athletes, Botswana’s Olympic 200m champion Letsile Tebogo, defied the rulebook. He worked hard while a small boy, nursed huge football career dreams and hoped to excel like some other African footballers in plying their trade in top flight leagues across the globe. Oops! His lofty dreams crash-landed before take-off.
