Imani-Lara Lansiquot is not one to stand still, so it is a good thing she is a sprinter. After accumulating Olympic, World Championship and European Championship medals, she completed the set with Commonwealth gold.
Lansiquot was part of the 4x100m team that won gold at their home Games, originally crossing the line for silver but later upgraded to the title of Champions in 2023.
After having to isolate upon arrival at Tokyo 2020, the 24-year-old wrote a play about her hometown of Peckham.
Lansiquot emerged from isolation to secure a bronze medal in the 4x100m relay, completing the medal set on the global stage.
Her first senior medal came with gold in the same event at the 2018 European Championships, with silver at the World Championships following a year later.
At the 2023 World Athletics Championships, Lansiquot roared to a brilliant 4x100m bronze.
