Gareth Hadfield’s stock continues to rise. After claiming city titles in the 800-metre, 1,500-M and 3,000-M distances last week, the 18-year-old from Sir Winston Churchill High School breezed through the Alberta Schools’ Athletic Association track and field meet in Medicine Hat over the weekend and claimed provincial gold in all three events.

JD results at Spring Challenge

By Luke | Published: May 19, 2010

I would like to offer my sincerest congratulations to the 45 JD athletes - Katie, Lauren Garnett, Ellie, Maria, Jessica, Bailey, Kendall, Antha, Kennedy, Lauren Fridman, Josie, Siri, Janessa, Emily, Steph, Dana, Anna, EmmaMartin, Madelaine, Emma Chong, Rhea, Mia, Heather, Brent Bester, Nicholas, Rui, Rowan, Charlie, Austin, Matthew Springer, Eric, PatrickLyster, Scott, Alex McDuffie, Matthew Schalm, Jackson, Tyler, BrentStephen, Michael, Alex Charlesworth, Nathan, Lockie, Patrick Meister, Sean, Ben, and Cheetah Alison Martin, who competed in the Calgary Spring Challenge and Combined Events meet this past weekend.  Among them, these 46 athletes produced some outstanding results. What pleased me the most was that, being the trials for the Alberta Summer Games, this was our first really important meet of the outdoor season, with the top athletes from all over the province competing. The JD athletes certainly rose to the occasion. There were 98 personal best performances recorded by the JD athletes at this meet - a remarkable number. JD athletes captured 7 gold medals, 9 silver medals and 14 bronze medals. The CALTAF midget/youth team is, for the fourth year in a row, the Spring Challenge Team Champions, continuing their undefeated streak since the Challenge first took place in 2007. The peewee/bantam team finished 3rd of six teams behind two very strong teams from the Calgary Spartans and Passtrak. As a result of the meet, there will no doubt be an impressive number of JD midget athletes named to Team Calgary for the Alberta Summer Games. Well done everyone!  Those are outstanding results! Congratulations!

There were many, many highlights, so be prepared for a long read!

Russell captures third-straight 5K

…Meanwhile, fellow CALTAF runner Holly Ratzlaff started out the day thinking she was going to tackle the 5K race for fun while her dad Doug joined the 10K runners.
But before he could even barely begin, the former Dino track star wound up finishing with the day’s fastest female 5K time in 18:39 — her personal best.
“I was pretty happy about it,” said Ratzlaff. “I don’t run too many 5K’s. I usually do the 800-metre.
“This is the start of the outdoor season, so it was a good run to see how things are going.”
Calgary’s Riley McQueen was a second slower than Ratzlaff while the next fastest runner was Maddy MacDonald of Calgary, who was racing in the 15 to 19 age category and finished in 18:54…..read more…
