Botswana Sprinter Tebogo Letsile Shares Life Beyond the Track

Olympic medalist Tebogo Letsile, who has been in the spotlight since his historic win at the upcoming Paris 2024 Olympics, recently gave the world a glimpse into his life beyond athletics.
Letsile, who was awarded R1,350,000 by Botswana’s Choppies and R270,000 by the government for his achievements, revealed in a viral interview that he is also a farmer.
“I was on the farm this morning and spent the night there. I mainly raise cattle and need a solid plan to grow my herd,” Letsile shared. “Athletics isn’t a long-term career, so I’m focused on investments and creating different opportunities.”
He’s investing in livestock at the age of 21. God knew not to give me this life because I’d be unhinged. I’d invest in stocko but not livestock https://t.co/2FCVwRKx3R
