    I can’t say I was expecting Canada to qualify here so any result is a nice surprise.

    I knew we wouldn’t do well but this is even worse than I expected.

    The mens 4x100relay captured the bronze, 16 year old Antoine Sauve split a 48.73...this bodes well.

    I fully believed that Canada would beat Spain today, I did not expect all the other Americas teams to lose today and Canada clinching the spot. Exciting stuff!

    The 4x400m relay has finished 4th so many times that there has to be something big coming for them in Paris.

    I literally just watched the last lap and it looked like he got boxed in when he was trying to make a move.

    With a total 3 spots up for grabs at the Pan Am Games and 2024 Championship of the Americas fingers crossed she can get Canada an Olympic berth.

    I feel this is the end of the road for this cycle but the Canadian men's team is beginning to rebuild after a rough couple of years.
  9. james89
    I probably missed it but is Sage Watson injured or did she retire?

    I didn't have a Katzberg gold on my bingo card for this championship.

    To be fair of the 4th I wasn't expecting Dunfee to be anywhere near the top in the 20km.

    Track Cycling always feels like a sport Canada should do better in that we do. I think Mitchell would have done better here if Finucane hadn't been on a tear all weekend. Bibic seems like he'll be a medal threat in the Omnium eventually. Pursuit teams looking good for Olympic qualification, Sprint teams look like they'll probably make the cut-off but not certain.

    Duenas won a World Championship medal in 2013 and it led to nothing. I'm really really hoping we are able to qualify a men's team, I think its unlikely but there's unpredictability in this sport.

    Javier Acevedo posted on Instagram that 2024 will be his last year of swimming. I’m ever hopeful that the mens 4x100m freestyle can win a medal next year but they really are one 47 split short of getting it done atm.

    The 400 IM was the third fastest of all time...it’s hardly considered off.
  16. james89
    I'm proud of the fact that the men's 4x200m relay took 8 seconds off their time from last year to this year, they didn't make the final but like from one year to the next it is an impressive drop. Should be in the mix for Olympic Qualification

    There’s lots of potential for this relay to do well once Ruck is back up to form and Oleksiak is back. If Jansen, O’Cronin or Douthwright can get down to a 1:57 it would be even better overall.

    Another Canadian doing a PB with Hugh McNeil in 200m back
  19. james89
    I’m at least intrigued. Liendo still won the 100m Butterfly at the commonwealth games when he was far from his best.
  20. james89
    The thing I worry about is that many countries seem to have excellent athletes all peaking at the same time. tbh with how they’ve been swimming I wouldn’t be surprised to see Kharun do better at the 100m fly than Liendo.
  21. james89
    I think it was a PB for Dergusoff in the 50 Breast
  22. james89
    Her time was 54.99 which really isn’t going to cut it for the lead off leg. MacNeil I think went a career best time but it would be great to have another sub 54 split to bring us back into medal contention.
  23. james89
    I really wonder if getting her in for both the 400m free and the relay was the issue. Having to conserve energy for the relay may have had something to do with it. I was a bit concerned about the relay for Paris given the 7th place but like Oleksiak being back and Ruck being more on form should bring the Canadian team back in contention. It would be even better if someone like Rebecca Smith could get back to 2021 form.
  24. james89
    I think about Sjostrom and Hosszu who has so much pressure at the 2012 Olympics coming in as favourites and hopefully this can get those jitters out.
  25. james89
    The mens 4x100m relay was a highlight too - no medal, but they looked strong. I'm curious if we'll ever see Kahurn on that relay.
