Omanyala to Open 2026 Season at French Meet
Ferdinand Omanyala will begin his 2026 athletics season in France, marking an early test for Kenya’s sprint star as he builds toward a packed international calendar. The African 100m record holder is set to line up at a European meet later this month.
Omanyala said the choice of France offers strong competition and ideal conditions to gauge his form. “It’s about starting well and sharpening up early,” he noted.
The sprinter is coming off an intense training block and is targeting consistency ahead of major championships later in the year. His European opener is expected to set the tone for another high-profile season.
