Source-derived summary

Reginaldo Michá Ndong (born October 14, 1986) is an Equatoguinean track and field sprint athlete who competes internationally for his country.

Reginaldo, who also went by "Reggie", qualified for his first global championship at the 2003 World Championships in Athletics, where he entered in the 100 metres. At just age 16, Ndong ran 11.47 seconds into a headwind to finish 7th in his heat.

Ndong was entered in the 100 metres at the 2004 World U20 Championships, but he didn't start the race. At a 2005 meeting in Malabo, Ndong set a hand-timed time of 11.0 seconds in the 100 m to break his personal best. He would later run 10.96 seconds to break his best again that year.

Ndong was regarded as the top sprinter from his country in the mid-2000s. At the 2005 World Championships in Athletics, seeded in the 8th 100 m heat, he ran 11.57 seconds into a headwind to place 7th, again failing to advance to the quarter-finals. Later that season at the 2005 Francophone Games, Ndong advanced past the first round of the 100 metres into the semi-finals with a 4th-place heat showing. He finished 8th in his semi-final and did not make the finals.

Editorial analysis

Why this record matters

The subject matters to the general reference register because the source frames it as equatorial Guinean athletics competitor (* 1986). Its deeper value depends on whether names, dates, institutions and citations support that framing.

Evidence profile

Named sources, stable identifiers and responsible institutions provide the strongest route from overview to verifiable evidence. The source revision retrieved here is dated Jul 1, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q3499471. 1 of 1 selected statements include explicit references; 0 carry qualifiers and 0 use preferred rank. The first chronological checks are 1986, 2003, 2004 and 2005.

Critical limits

A concise general-reference account can conceal disagreements about scope, terminology or the weight assigned to individual sources. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.

How to read it

Use the entry as an orientation point, then follow its citations and revision history. Names, dates and institutional relationships should be checked against the original record.
