“Here is my calendar for the last part of the 2023 season! If you have been praying for my races, this is the calendar we need to pray for the most because these races will carry so much weight and history after that finish line. A man’s heart plans his course, but the Lord determines his steps. May the Lord be with me,” Omanyala stated.
