The inaugural meet of Grand Slam Track is scheduled to get underway on Friday, April 4. As some of the world's biggest track stars prepare for the competition, the likes of Gabby Thomas and Fredy Kerley recently rocked some casual outfits as they landed in Kingston.
In late 2024, 12-time World and Olympic champion Michael Johnson announced the launch of Grand Slam Track, a one-of-its-kind track league. The league will host four meets annually, pitting the world's best against each other. Each GST meet will feature six race groups, with each race group having two events an athlete must compete in. Over the past few months, GST has signed some of the fastest runners in the world, promising fans some thrilling action.
