Biography

[edit]

Thomas competed for the Woodford Green AC in Woodford, London. With a personal best of 10.32 seconds, he was the Sierra Leonean record-holder over 100 metres before he was injured at the 2004 AAA Indoor Championships.[2] Thomas also ran a wind-assisted 10.19 time in Fullerton, California that was not eligible for records.[3]

Thomas finished third in both the 100 metres and 200 metres at the British 1997 AAA Championships.[4][5]

Thomas has a twin brother Joselyn Thomas, who competed in the 2002 Commonwealth Games men's 100 m and other international competitions with Josephus.[2] He said that the Sierra Leonean athletics association would not send him enough resources for training.[2]
