After honing his skills while throwing spears as a Maasai warrior, Ita Nao Leshan now targets the world under-20 and world junior javelin record this year.

The youngster stormed into the Nairobi 2017 world under-18 finals without any experience, but the 18-year-old athlete says time has come for him to be among the best in the world.
