MIDMAR MILE: ANTONOPOULOS OUT TO GO ONE BETTER

Carli is aiming for redemption

Picture: Action Photo SA

Carli Antonopoulos was covering up to 90km a week in training in the buildup to last year's Midmar Mile.

Having finished second in the elite women's race in 2024, she was determined to go one better in 2025 before disaster struck.

The Pretoria-based swimmer slipped while climbing into the boat to take her across the dam to the start for one of her warm-up swims and broke her arm.

That brought a lengthy halt to her training programme. “From the 8th of February until the beginning of May, I was basically out,” explained Antonopoulos.

“I was out the water for three weeks, and then the fourth week I was back in the water with my cast and everything.
