Put this guy on your 'athletes to watch' list in the coming weeks of Olympic coverage.
Indiegogo, an international online funding platform, recently released a commercial highlighting the journey of Lesotho athlete Tsepo Ramonene as he trains for the upcoming London Marathon. Using his country and family as motivation, the 21-year old athlete lives with his parents and two siblings in a house lacking electricity, a common situation for a country of two million with an unemployment rate of 45%.
Tsepo qualified for the Games with a 02:16:36 marathon finish, set to complete with three of his countrymen on August 12th in a attempt to bring Lesotho it's first Olympic medal.
