Newsflash: Blogger Married to Elite Athlete in two Languages


Leo just received the following email from Athletics Canada:


As a result of your excellent age group ranking in 2014, Athletics Canada and Running Flat would like to invite you to Le Chocolat, a Mother’s Day primer 10k on May 3, 2015 in Windsor, ON, that will serve as this year’s AC/CMA Age Group national championships. National championship medals will be awarded to the top three in all age-groups from juniors to masters.

À la suite de votre excellent classement de catégorie d'âge en 2014, Athlétisme Canada et Running Flat voudrais vous inviter à Le Chocolat, une course de 10k le 3 mai 2015 à Windsor ON, qui servira de championnat nationaux AC / CMA de catégorie d'âge. Des médailles de championnat national seront décernés aux trois premiers dans tous les groupes d'âge de juniors au maîtres

Curious, I googled his track and field rankings, and found him listed in the world masters athletics rankings.  Some pretty impressive standings!  Note, its me, not Leo, trumpeting his achievements.  He says there are loads faster runners than him, they just haven't competed in races recognized by the  athletic organizations.

Leo has sent his regrets to Ontario, it clashes with his bagpipe competition, which, by the way, he finds much more difficult than running.
