Congratulations: Chirstine and Brook qualify for YOG.

With Christine's 3rd place finish and Brook's 8th place finish at the Youth Olympic Games Qualifer in Monterrey, Mexico they qualify themselves for the Games in Singapore in August.  Congratulations!!

A big congratulations to all the Canadian juniors for their outstanding effort out there on Friday.  Very impressive first kick out at junior elite racing this season.   It's also been good fun hanging out with the Quebec junior girls Maghalie Rochette, Amelie Kratz and their coach Kyla Rollingson.  And of course coach Gary with this Winnipeg junior boys squad of Riler Unger, Riley McCharles and Charles Brault (yes, younger brother of the famous BOSS - Sarah Ann Brault).   And not least it's been great to reunite with Dominka Jamnicky from Port Hope, Ontario and to meet her mother who is a equally super nice as Domi.  

Dr. Young has been doing a fantastic job preventing illness and dealing with minor issues. Great to have her help at this race.
