Ellerton Wins His 2nd National Championship

Canadian Track and Field Championships,
Calgary, 6/24-6/25, 2011

Ellerton Wins His Second National Championships

Sudbury native, Andrew Ellerton, won his second senior national title at the Canadian Track and Field Championships this weekend. Ellerton, who trains in Victoria and Phoenix, but maintains his affiliation with Track North Athletic Club, entered the meet as the defending 800 metre champion and left with his second consecutive championship.

Running in heavy winds, Ellerton took the lead after 300m of a pedestrian pace, surging at the 400m mark, then unleashing his kick with 100m to go, eventually pulling away in the final 40 metres for the win. His splits were 58 seconds for the first 400m and 52 for the second, for a final time of 1:52.12.

Ellerton now participates in two more domestic meets before leaving for a month of European competition in July.

Ross Proudfoot, still a Junior but competing in his first Senior track nationals, became involved in a tactical semi-final, was out-kicked down the homestretch and did not qualify for the final. He placed 17th with a time of 3:54.26.

Proudfoot approaching sub-4 minute mile

"Proudfoot approaching sub-4 minute mile"

Track North Athletic Club's Ross Proudfoot, 18 (Lively, ON) has taken another
step closer to eclipsing the elusive sub 4 minute mile barrier.

Competing in the "metric mile" 1,500 metre distance at the American Miler's High
Performance Series in Indianapolis, Indiana on Wednesday night, Proudfoot ran to
a new personal best of 3 minutes, 45.00 seconds.  This equates to a mile time of
4:02.

The race was won by fellow Canadian and 2008 Olympian, Taylor Milne of Calendar,
ON in a time of 3 minutes 38.78 seconds.

Proudfoot's time keeps him ranked first in the national junior (age 19 and
under) rankings.  Proudfoot's next competition will be the Canadian Senior
Championships in Calgary, June 24th and 25th.
