Spanish term or phrase: reeditar sus coronas
This appears in an article about a Cuban hurdler who is going to try and 'reeditar sus coronas de Bejing 2008 y Doha 2010.' He won gold medals at both these events but I am not sure what exactly 'reeditar' means in this context. Any suggestions greatly appreciated.
