Brislane ran a Time-Trial, supervised by the track club he is currently training with in the UK, and record a brisk time on 15:33, well below the Qualifying Standard.
Brislane said, “The running conditions were very good - cool but not cold and there was no wind, I felt good at the end of the run.”
Brislane joins Khazi Sealey the other athlete that qualified in the 5000m, Tommy Marshall and Kallan Richardson are also hoping to reach the qualifying standard in the next two weeks.
