Globline Mayova ran herself in to the record books as she ran her best ever 100m in 11.76 at an international athletics event in Mauritius on Saturday.
She came second behind Carima Louami of France who won the race in a time of 11.58.
The previous Namibian national record which was set in 1988 by Marian Basson stood at 11,73, but according to Athletics Namibia president Frank Fredericks that record will remain a ‘provincial’ record since it was set before Namibia’s independence in 1990.
