Canadian University Championships

Leila at the CI's:
If you haven't heard, Leila Angrand returned from the CIS Indoor Track Championships with a silver medal in the 3000m and a 7th place in the 1500m. Her times were a personal best 9:49.86 and 4:35.83, respectively. She was named Second-Team All-Canadian for her 3000m.

You can see a description of the meet at the LU website at:

Even better, you can see excerpts of Leila's silver medal race on YouTube, including some neat surges and moves on the curb. Be sure to watch the final two laps, as St. FX's Erin McLean pulls away by 25 meters, then is caught by Leila on the homestretch. The link is below:
