Part One: Mildred Baxter Legend has it that folk-hero Mildred Baxter came to Harbour Breton in the mid-1840s to settle a score with her cheating fiance. In order to make the trip from her home in England, she adopted a secret identity. She disguised herself as a man and took up life in Harbour Breton alongside her fiance and his new bride. It's a fascinating tale of love, lies and revenge that stretches the limits of credibility.

This week we're kicking off a new mini-series called "The Shakeout Podcast: Olympic-Bound Canadians". We're now less than 6 weeks out from the start of the Tokyo Olympics, and Athletics Canada is poised to send a bigger team this year than in almost any other Olympics of the last 2 decades. Our depth is incredible and our athletes have stepped up brilliantly under the challenging conditions of the last year. Over the next several weeks, we will be sitting down with some of our country's best runners who are, in all likelihood, Tokyo-bound. Each episode will focus on a different event group and sex category. We'll chat about athletes' preparation for the Olympics, their goals, their major competitors and other exciting storylines to follow. Our first episode features the Women's 800m with Melissa Bishop-Nriagu, Lindsey Butterworth and Maddy Kelly.Learn more about The Shakeout Podcast and Canadian Running Magazine on our website https://runningmagazine.ca/category/shakeout-podcast/Follow The Shakeout Podcast on Twitter https://twitter.com/ShakeoutPodcastInstagram https://www.instagram.com/shakeoutpodcast/ andFacebook https://www.facebook.com/theshakeoutpodcast/Subscribe to our weekly show on Apple Podcasts https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/the-shakeout-podcast/id1224828899243

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!

Whether you’re just trying out your first pair of track spikes, or you’re running at the world championships, for most runners inclined that way, it all traces back to the twilight meet. These “all-comer” affairs provide the venue for testing tactics, setting personal bests and pretty much everything in between. While twilights can often be a local affair, maybe featuring clubs from a few towns over, there is one such meet in London, Ontario that has grown into something a lot more. 1,500m Night put on by London Runner, as part of the Runner’s Choice London Runner Distance Series, is, as the name suggests, an evening of strictly 1,500s, with seed times ranging from 8 minutes flat to 3:40. This year’s iteration featured over 400 runners from 4 countries and 7 provinces competing in 30 different heats, but while the stats are impressive, it's the stories that come from it that are truly memorable. Whether it be the countless tales of PBs from runners that run the range of times, or when Nicole Sifuentes looked to qualify for the 2015 World Championships with pacer Melissa Bishop, and ended up bringing a young Gabriella Stafford to her first sub-4:10 1,500 (a 4:07.44), or last years meet when the entire collective of engaged spectators got on their feet, making all sorts of noise as Corey Bellemore raced his last lap, finishing with a new PB of 3:40.1. The lore is building for this meet, which is why I felt it appropriate to bring in a couple of runners who found great success at this year’s edition. Lucia Stafford, a 4:09 1,500m runner, who has spent much of the last year bouncing back from a medical procedure, and is having one of her best seasons (as well, she is the younger sister of Olympian and national record holder Gabriella), and Isaiah Frielink, UWO standout, last year’s national junior 1,500m champ, and owner of a new 3:44 PB. Both had the fastest times at 1,500m night, and both are on the show.

This week on The Shakeout we dive into what it's like to be a runner's partner. We bring you the story of five different couples who are in a relationship with each other, but also with running.  Today's guests are Osi Nriagu, Alan Bagoo, Maddie Davidson, Jeremy Rae and Will Roumanis. All of these people are in a relationship with a runner. Some of our guests are, or were, runners in their own right and others have only discovered running through their partner. We gain their perspectives on the intricacies, frustrations and joys of being in a partnership with someone who's so invested in what they do.

With nothing but the World Championships left to go in this indoor season, I think we can call this one a success. Whether it be Melissa Bishop setting a new national record in the indoor 8, “friend of the show” Justyn Knight getting 3rd in the NCAA 3000, or countless other memorable moments, it’s been a good one. On today’s episode, we’ll take a look back at the season that was, with, Corey Bellemore, the golden Lancer who cleaned up at the CIS Championships last weekend, and our in house run pundit, Jeff Costen, who will join us to chat indoors, marathons and H2MCs.
