“It was very nerve-wrecking, but I feel very proud that he brought home a medal for us.”

This was the sentiment of an elated Rena Quow, mother of World Championship 400metre bronze Medallist, Renny Quow, a few minutes after the race.

Just about an hour and a half earlier when Newsday visited their Darrel Spring home, Quow said she was not well enough to look at the race. As a result, she told another son to inform her of the results.

Her fourth child’s win came as an instant pain reliever to his mother who was suddenly strong enough to go to her Bacolet workplace.

Renny’s older brother, Ricky, beamed with pride as he told Newsday how “nice” his brother’s running was.

The 23 year-old said that he had spoken to his brother on Thursday night and he seemed quite confident of bringing home a medal.

Meanwhile, a number of persons around Scarborough rejoiced after hearing of Quow’s third place in winning the bronze medal, via a radio newscast.

“That’s the second win for Tobago. Just now you’ll see Tobago athletes bringing home the gold medals for the country. We moving up.” Mark Job said.

Tobago’s Josanne Lucas struck bronze during the 400m hurdles at the 2009 IAAF Athlethics World Championships on Thursday.
