lescay 4x400La Habana.- Después de más de dos años fuera de las pistas, en los que sufrió lesiones, enfermedades y tuvo que superar cierta desmotivación por falta de oportunidades, el tunero regresó al atletismo este 2023 y poco a poco ha ido elevando su nivel.

Su marca de 46.31 seg (mayo) le permitió llegar a los Centrocaribes de San Salvador, donde buscará su quinta medalla en citas regionales, luego de sumar dos oros, en los relevos 4x400 mas, y dos platas, en individuales, en Veracruz-2014 y Barranquilla 2018.

Para el finalista olímpico y mundial con el relevo de 4x400 será su segunda competencia internacional en 2023, luego de los Juegos del ALBA, en Venezuela, donde sumó un oro en el relevo mixto y bronce en 200m. También en el año se coronó campeón nacional en 400 m y en el relevo mixto, con RN de 3.16.91min.

Ahora al timón del cubano Yaseen Pérez Gómez- el hombre que ha llevado a la gloria a la dominicana Mari Paulino -, Lescay (29 años) ha logrado parciales alentadores en los últimos días, que hacen predecir su llegada a San Salvador en buena forma.

Su primera prueba de fuego la tendrá el lunes en el relevo mixto 4x400, cuando salga a la pista en la final directa junto a otros tres integrantes de equipo Cuba, presumiblemente Roxana Gómez, Lisneidy Veitía y Leonardo Castillo.
