A video capturing T&T athlete Tonya Nero's magnificent win has gone viral online with over five million views and over 80,000 shares.

Nero won the Colombian Emeralds International 10K over the weekend, nabbing first place in a last-minute dash which caught fellow runners Natasha Wodak and Lanni Marchant by surprise at the last moment.

Marchant doubled at the Olympics running the 10,000m and marathon in Rio while Wodak too contested the 10,000m at the 2016 Games in August.

To their surprise, Trinidad and Tobago’s Tonya Nero nipped both of them at the line as the three ran times between 36:36 and 36:37.

The race was part of the Run Barbados Marathon Weekend, which was part of the island's 50th anniversary celebrations.

Nero, who is originally from Maracas, St Joseph, is the national record holder of the 5,000m, 10,000m, Half Marathon and Marathon titles.

She also represented T&T at her first Commonwealth Games in Glasgow, Scotland in 2014.
