🇨🇦 Canada’s @lucabruca crashes the U.S. Championship qualifying heat of the men’s 10,000m at @sound_running’s The Ten. Wins in a personal best of 27:56.12. Closed with a 61.7 final lap.
That’s No. 8 for @AthleticsCanada all-time.

STUDY: Long-term senior athlete sport success is facilitated by extensive childhood/adolescent multi-sport practice, relatively late start in the main sport, gradual initial progress, and only moderate childhood/adolescent specialized main-sport practice. link.springer.com/article/10…
Good luck!
Running season is far from over. The Valencia marathon starts at 8:15 local time (2:15 ET) on Sunday, Dec 5, and will feature two Canadian national team members:
Ben Preisner: 2021 Olympian (PB 2:10:17)
Justin Kent (@jkent_): PB: 2:17:22
Yes, Ben and Justin, we'll be up.
Thanks @VictoriaMarathn for the race, it's been awhile. 24:21 in the 8k & 3rd place. The best part is running hard after 20 months of cautious on-and-off running while rehabbing my torn hamstring and pulled achilles. Loved seeing everyone outside giving it their best in the 🍂☀️
Even though it's virtual, I'm excited to spin the wheels and see what I've got, especially with everything going on and since I've been struggling with injuries since Jan 2020. Thanks for putting on the race!

As a distance runner, I'd like to highlight the collaboration I've seen develop, between teammates, rivals, & cross town groups, over the last 10 years, and how this comradery has helped everyone's success. Let's keep it up! & Good luck!

I should have just gone for a run around the seawall last night. 10 months into rehabbing my achilles & clearly still not ready to race #pacificdistancecarnival.😤
