Turkmen athlete Valentina Meredova completed her performance at the 2024 Olympic Games in Paris, demonstrating her best result of the season in the 100-meter run. In the first round of the competition, the 39 years old athlete covered the distance in 11,95 seconds, which, however, was not enough to reach the semi-finals.
Meredova, Turkmenistan's only track and field representative at the Olympics, made it through the preliminary round, finishing fourth in her heat with a time of 12,01 seconds. That result earned her 16th place out of 17 runners in the next round of the competition.
This is the second Olympics in Valentina Meredova’s career after participating in the 2008 Games in Beijing. She is the most experienced athlete in the Turkmen team at the Paris Olympics. Meredova also holds the national record of Turkmenistan in the 100m race – 11,56 seconds, set in 2008 in Almaty.
