News broke early Wednesday morning Chamorro Standard Time regarding the decision to move the 2020 Toyko Olympics back one year to 2021 due to the global pandemic of COVID-19. This puts a speed bump in the road for Guam’s athletes who were vying to represent the island in this years games.

“As the decision was just announced by the IOC, we will not be able to provide details until we receive information established by the IOC and the organizing committee. Our process my take a while as we are still currently observing the COVID-19 Protocol.”

This is a developing story….

QUICK HITS

Guam’s Wayne Blas completed his 13th Boston Marathon and 38th marathon overall.
The island’s record holder in the distance, Blas finished this year in 2:35:21.
“I’m very happy with this result because seven months ago, I was sidelined with a stress fracture that kept me out for three months. No running! To come back on an abbreviated marathon build and finish one of the toughest races strong and healthy was a big win for me.”
His time of 2:29:38 at the 2023 Chicago Marathon and World Marathon Majors Age Group Championships stands as the Guam National Record.
