In all Leo got 6 medals, his standings are below:
Rankin/Johnston | Gold | 1 | Men 75 - 79 4 x 400m Powerwalk Relay | final standing | Final Standings | (Z9) North Central | 10:58.12 |
Start of Leo's first race, 5000 metres
3 Amigos at the 5000 metres medal ceremony
As always, competition was keen, with Leo's perennial rival, Robert, just steps behind him in more than one race.
Finish line of 1500 m race
Gold medal team for North Central, Men's 4x400 power walk relay
Mixed 4x100 relay team (Leo ran with Lower Mainland and Vancouver Island runners to make up a team). Pauline (2nd from left) had just collapsed at the finish line of her 400 Metre race, but insisted on running the relay anyway
On the last day of the Games, Leo ran the 10 km race on a paved Rails to Trails that runs from Cranbrook to Kimberly. Our Kimberly friends, Rob and Liz, came out to cheer Leo on in 3 different places, but apparently he just ran by them, oblivious to their calling out his name.
Just before the finish line. You can see Robert in the green and yellow just 18 seconds behind him.
