Andre DeGrasse is entered in the men’s 100m and 200m, Jerome Blake in the men’s 100m, and Charles Philibert-Thiboutot in the men’s 1500m at the Ostrava Golden Spike on May 28. DeGrasse is also entered in the men’s 200m at the Taiwan Athletics Open on June 1, along with Ethan Katzberg in men’s hammer throw. Brendon Rodney is entered in the men’s 200m at the Racers Grand Prix on June 1, along with Michelle Harrison in the women’s 100m hurdles. 
 

No Canadians in action at the Oslo Diamond League, surprisingly.

SBs for Andre DeGrasse and Jerome Blake in the men’s 100m at the Ostrava Golden Spike! 10.10 for DeGrasse and 10.19 for Blake.

20.09 SB for Andre DeGrasse in the men’s 200m! Did the double and still didn’t look tired afterwards.

SB, not season-opener.

Pretty decent 3:34.50 in the men’s 1500m for Charles Philibert-Thiboutot, but he faded quite badly near the end.

I will also add that despite not being the fastest of in season athletes, DeGrasse has still won 4/5 of his races. Bodes well for Paris.

Malik Metivier is back tomorrow!

Lot’s of comebacks from injury lately! Watson and now Metivier! Hopefully we’ll be seeing McBride and Knight in action soon.
