Some of you folks may know that one of my other hobbies during the summer months is to work as an announcer at Outlaw triathlon events. I’m lucky enough to have called some of you across the line, sometimes more than once. It’s a tough job working as an MC, and it’s more than just talking all day (something which I can do well!). Sad as it is that your triathlon events have been offline for over 12 months, spare a thought for those for whom events like these are how they earn money. My guest today is one such person, for whom 2020 should have been his best year ever of race announcing. Steve Fleck is one of the leading Endurance Sports Race/Event Announcers & Commentators in North America for cycling, running, and triathlon races and events. It's a natural extension of a life spent running, cycling, and racing triathlons since his mid-teens and wearing multiple hats in and around the business of endurance sports in Sales, Business Development, Media, Marketing, and Communications. He lives in Aurora, Ontario with his wife, Paolina, and their dog, Gravy. Steve and I started chatting about recording this podcast in Kona way back in 2019 bc (before Covid) and it’s taken us almost 18 months to get it done, so I hope you envy the chat as we catch up about: How the pandemic has hit endurance sports, and what events might look like going forward How the pandemic affected Steve’s race announcing business and scrambling for other work to fill the gap Government financial support, and who has helped race organisers since March 2020 PTO: how they stepped up in 2020 and their role in helping triathletes in the last 12 months, including the Daytona race That Lionel Sanders Canadian 1 hour track record To find out more about Steve and to follow him on social media please visit these channels Facebook - SteveFleck Twitter @SteveFleck LinkedIn flecksteve PTO & paid maternity leave for female triathletes Lionel sanders 1hr Canadian Track record with Steve Fleck as m/c If you would like to help offset the cost of our podcast production, we would be so grateful.

Linda Blade was a Canadian Track and Field Champion, and NCAA All-American in heptathalon. Following her athletic career she completed a PhD in Kinesiology and has devoted her life since then to developing and implementing training programs for new generations of athletes. She is currently President of Athletics Alberta, in Canada. For a long time she has been concerned with male bodies in female sports, biological males who declare themselves transgender women and then, based on their sex-based biological advantages, consistently win events, leaving all the biological women behind. David and Linda discuss the physical differences in male skeletons, musculature and more, and how women are now fighting a rearguard action to regain the sex-based distinction of their sports category, after mostly men in important organizations like the IOC gave it away.

Just about two weeks ago, the wonderful show "Schitt's Creek" came to an end after six seasons. The plot seems very topical because people who had lots, suddenly have nothing due to circumstances out of their control. All they have is each other and their family. That seems very timely. I was thinking about something that CBC (the show's originator) did many years ago. They put together an online poll about the best Canadians of all-time. Terry Fox ended up being No. 2 on that list. There were all kinds of different people there including actors and entertainers. The top-ranked actor was Mike Meyers in 2004. I was thinking that these days he wouldn't rank that high but Eugene Levy might crack the top 100 after the end of Schitt's Creek. That made me start thinking about how I would rank the top Canadian track and field athletes of all-time? How would that come together and what would it look like? I went back and did a lot of research to compile a top 10. I do have to qualify some things...I'm focusing on post-World War II and not as far back in history because the sport is so vastly different that it's hard to compare. Also, anyone that was caught up in the Charle Francis and Ben Johnson doping ring has been disqualified. Chris Chavez asked me about someone like Moh Ahmed and I noted to him that I prioritized multiple world championship and Olympic medalists combined with longtime excellence. Another great athlete who might miss the cut, as a result, is someone like pole vault world champion Shawn Barber. Give the show a listen to catch my Top 10... ▶ Follow CITIUS MAG: twitter.com/CitiusMag | instagram.com/citiusmag | facebook.com/citiusmag ✩ Connect with Jesse and the show via Email: trackhistorypod@gmail.com | twitter.com/tracksuperfan

Two weeks ago the Canadian Track and Field Championships took place in Montréal, QC. There were several breathtaking moments, not the least of which was the final of the women's 800m. Four-time reigning champion and Canadian record-holder Melissa Bishop-Nriagu and west-coast standout Lindsay Butterworth came in as heavy favourites. But it was Canadian Running Staff Writer Madeleine Kelly who used a late surge to muscle her way to her first ever National victory!
Malindi Elmore is the queen of evolution. Growing up in Canada, she knew early on that running was her passion. This, after all, was a girl who was more excited about winning the 100-meter dash than the spelling bee in school. She was raised as a multi-sport athlete who participated in soccer, field hockey, skiing, waterskiing, running, and hiking, but running was her passion, and coaches took notice early on. By 12 years old, she decided it would be the sport that would take her to the Olympics. After a stellar middle-distance career at Stanford, she went on to run professional and put her efforts into qualifying for the 2004 Olympics in Athens. Her dreams came true on July 1st, 2004 when she won the Canadian Track and Field Championships in 4:04 and was selected to the Olympic Team. Elmore retired from professional running in 2012 and, after the birth of her first son Charlie, dove headfirst into the waters of long-distance triathlon (under Coach Matt Dixon) where she raced a sub 9:00 hour Ironman in 2016, placing 3rd in her first Ironman event. While she enjoyed the variety of Multisport training and earning her pro card, the birth of her second child evolved priorities once again and Malindi transitioned back to her first love - RUNNING. This time? Her focus was on the marathon. In January 2019, just six months after the birth of her second child, Elmore ran a 2:32 at the Houston Marathon. As she writes, “A 2:32 marathon left me hungry for more and brought an old flame back into my life: the pursuit of the 2020 Olympic Games. I realize I have a narrow window left to do some amazing things as an athlete in the sport as I will be 40 years old next year and my clock is ticking!” There are, no doubt, many lessons to learn from this passionate coach, athlete, wife, and mother. Not being defined by one label Putting disappointments and injury into perspective Managing life as a Mom and professional athlete Embracing and leaning into change Focusing on the process Constant evolution in order to stay fit, fresh and passionate Congratulations and best of luck on your Olympic pursuits.

What a wild week it has been. The 2017 Canadian Track and Field Championships are all wrapped up for another year, after days of top level action in Ottawa brought to you by the Ottawa Lions and Athletics Canada. I was lucky enough to take a few days in, enjoy the action, listen to some great stories, and package it all up into this file you're currently listening to. This episode doesn’t quite follow the regular format of long form interviews, in fact if I had to describe it, I’d say it’s something like one of those old time christmas variety shows with a ton of surprise cameos along the way. This week, we catch up with Kevin Nault from One Track Mind, Rob Denault and Justyn Knight battle for trivia supremacy...again, Evan Dunfee talks about broadcasting, walking and his place in the world as an athlete, Jeff Tweedle, Corey Bellemore, Rachel Cliff, Chris Winter, they’re all on the show this week.

The biggest names in Canadian Track will all be in one place between July 7 through 10th in a gathering that will likely see some of the best racing that has ever been witnessed in the “Great White North.” Edmonton is that place and the event, of course, is the Canadian Track And Field Championships, pulling double duty as the Olympic trials for this year. With a tonne on the line, especially in events like the men’s steeplechase, it promises to be a Canadian athletics fan’s dream. This week on the show we chat with a guy who made his name at the Canadian Champs last year, Thomas Riva, and recurring run pundit, Jeff Costen chats about what to expect at the big show.
For fans of Canadian Track and field, this spring has almost been an embarrassment of riches, whether it’s been watching the high flying Shawn Barber pole vault his way into the record books, witnessing Canada’s latest sprint star, Andre De Grasse do his thing in the 100 and 200, or Cam Levins run an expertly executed 10000 to take home the Canadian record. Not to be left out, the women of Canadian track have been doing incredible things as well! On this week’s show we sit down with with Natasha Wodak, Canada’s queen of the 10000. We’ll also chat with elite race walker and clean sport advocate Evan Dunfee about the latest developments doping in athletics, Canada’s place in doping, and his training for the summer season.
