One day made the world of difference in the career of national 400m champion Winston George on Sunday in New York.

Twenty-four hours after a confidence-denting performance at the Adidas Diamond League competition, George rebounded to smash his own national record with an excellent 45.31 seconds sprint around the Icahn Stadium to win the United States of America Track and Field (USATF) federation’s Eastern Regional Championships 400 metres event. According to the meet’s website, George’s display, which also included victory in the 200m, capped a good day for three other Guyanese athletes
