British Virgin Islands long jumper, Chantel Malone, says she wants to compete at both the Commonwealth Games and World Championships in 2022.
The 2019 Pan Am Games Champion, speaking Sportsmax.TV’s On Point, says she’s up to the challenge of competing in both events, even with the limited time between them.
The 2022 Eugene World Championships are scheduled to run from July 15th -July 24th and the Commonwealth Games are scheduled to run from July 28th -August 8th in Birmingham.
“It’s going to be tricky. It will definitely be a very intense next three cycles, but I think it’s do-able for sure,” said Malone.
She also referred to the fact that the US trials are also usually taking place at that time.
“The US athletes normally have their trials and then the World Championships or whatever games they’re preparing for within that period,” she said.
With the condensed nature of track and field for the next few years, Malone went on to say her health is her number one priority this season.
“It’s just about making sure that I can stay healthy. That’s my focus this year. To stay healthy and continue to grow and become a master and student of my craft,” said Malone.
The full interview can be seen on the Sportsmax TV YouTube channel.
