Tebogo returns to the farm

In a recent interview with SuperSports TV presenter, Thomas Mlambo, Tebogo explains what he does when he is not breaking records and making history.

The Botswana athlete has returned to his farm and showed some of his cows.

“I came back from the field this morning; I slept there [shambani].

“Basically, in the farm, what we do is raise our cows. I have cows, and I need to have a solid plan of what I will do to increase the number of cows,” he said.

The athlete sand he was asked if he wanted to continue owning the farm or if it was just an investment for him apart from athletics.

“Personally, my farm is an investment for me because athletics is not a long-term profession; I need to have different opportunities and see what I can direct my money to,” he added.
