For the second time in three weeks, that’s another day with 2 CANADIAN RECORDS IN ATHLETICS!! Absolutely insane. 

 

(April 20, with Leduc in the women’s 100m and Katzberg in men’s hammer throw)

Time revised to 44.05, would have been silver in Tokyo!

Not exactly suited to this thread, but with how well Canadian athletes have been performing, Gracenote’s projected number of medals for us seem a bit off.

Per Deven H, the NR was as old as CMW

I thought I was done reporting news on Canadian athletics, but wait, there’s more 

 

Jazz Shukla, with a new PB and first sub 2:00, clocking 1:59.94 in the women’s 800m at the LA Track Fest! 0.64 off the Olympic standard, but should qualify through the rankings regardless. Also a 2:03.99 SB for Madeleine Kelly, 4:03.87 SB for Lucia Stafford and 4:05.92 SB for Simone Plourde in the women’s 1500m, 3:37.56 SB for Cameron Proceviat,

 

I know she’s coming back from injury but 4:23.48 is concerning for Gabriella De Bues-Stafford.

It always is way lower than how we actually do.
