Already this indoor season, he's run 7.53 for 60mH, a time that if replicated at the European Indoors last weekend, would have won him the silver medal. And Ojora has also run 7.58 this winter. He'll go into those Indoor Championships as one of the top seeds.
Also, more significantly, these 60mH times Ojora has run, indicate to me that he is ready to substantially improve upon his 110mH PB of 13.38 he set in 2021. Tade currently sits joint 5th on the UK all time list for the 60mH, sharing it with William Sharman. Of those men on that list, it is only Allen Scott who never made it to an Olympic, World and/or European Championship final, or run sub 13.2 in the 110mH. (Scott's 110mH PB was 13.53, also from 2008. He still made an Olympic team, 2 EIC and a WIC, reaching the finals in the latter two in a career blighted by injuries.)
This rather suggests to me that Tade Ojora could be set for big things in the coming months at least.
