After struggling to gather funding to compete at the CARICOM 10K in Jamaica, T&T Distance runner Nicholas Romany was able to successfully defend the overall male category. He won the race in 32 minutes 11 seconds while Alexia John rose to the occasion to win the CARICOM Secretary-General's Trophy in 40 minutes 39 seconds. The race is usually used to commemorate the meeting of the CARICOM heads of government.
