On October 12, Campbell triumphed in the grueling 112.5-kilometer women’s road race, adding to her earlier gold in the individual time trial on October 11. The race, which tested the endurance of 17 elite cyclists, saw Campbell cross the finish line in 3 hours, 6 minutes, and 20 seconds, a commanding 31 seconds ahead of Bermuda’s Gabriella Arnold, who claimed second place. Cuban cyclist Evelyn Diaz Matos rounded out the podium in third. Seven participants were unable to complete the demanding course. Campbell’s dominance was further highlighted in the time trial, where she clocked an impressive 28 minutes and 39.4 seconds, leaving her competitors trailing by over three minutes. In the men’s events, Trinidad and Tobago’s Jadian Neaves secured third place in the Under-23 category, while Akil Campbell, Teniel’s brother, finished 11th in the senior division. The championships underscored the rising prominence of Caribbean cycling talent, with Campbell’s performances cementing her status as a regional powerhouse.
