Fresh from making the 60 metre semi-finals at the World Athletics Indoor Championships, scintillating sprinter Tiaan Whelpton outlines his year ahead that will hopefully lead to the outdoor version in Tokyo come September. Tiaan has been on a tear this summer clocking a New Zealand resident 100m record 10.10s in Auckland & collecting a third consecutive national 100m title in Dunedin on top of his off-shore achievements. He speaks candidly about the challenges of his chosen sport, knowing that the road to Japan won't necessarily be lined with cherry blossoms.
