SA Laser Run Championships

On the 7th March 2020 Isla Thomas participated in the SA Laser Run championships in Bloemfontein.

Isla finished in 6th place and thus qualified for selection for the u/13 SA (President’s) Team to represent South Africa at the Laser Run World Championships. These were scheduled to be held on 24th of August 2020 in Weiden, Germany. Unfortunately the event was cancelled due to COVID-19.

The Laser Run event is a discipline of the Modern Pentathlon and it consists of 3 x 400m runs, with 3 x 5 hits with a laser pistol from a distance of 5m. We are very proud of Isla’s achievements and congratulate her on being selected.
