No ones mentioned this but has anyone thought about the Central Region 3000m race this year. Out of this potential list only 4 will get to go to OFSAA
Andrew Degroot GBSSA- 8:31 Evan Esselink - LOSSA 8:32 Eric Dillon - LOSSA 8:32 Xavier King -LOSSA 8:32 Mike Pesce - GBSSA 8:38? Ron Denault - YRAA 8:40ish Connor Darlington LOSSA - 8:48 Jay Boychuk - LOSSA 8:40ish Jordan Bierema - LOSSA 8:52 Dylan Brown - YRAA 9:00 low in grade 10
Heck only 5 will get out of LOSSA and then you still have guys like Jamie Holt, Nick Reay, Ethan Henry who are capable of sub 9 but that might not even get them top 8 at LOSSA.

Especially given that Asselstine was observed to wheel no less than three girls during the race. Probably lost about 8-10 seconds each time, in addition to having to accelerate/decelerate. by the sounds of this rob should probably change his name to bobby big-wheels! that sure is impressive. i also have it from a credible source that robbie was drunk

Those are gonna be a couple of good races right there! Durham/York Region rocks for talent in this age group. Depth and quality. I hope someone has a real breakout year. Is someone capable of sub 8:20 here?

A good thread has a similar pace to that of a good race. We went out too hard, too early and now have nothing left in the tank.

It has also come to my attention that the Blackhawks face a lot of hot competition heading into this year's playoffs. It's gut check time boys.

So, I know this is sort of random. But I was just thinking of the 800m record that Andrew Heaney broke in 07. Does anyone know what University he went to? So, I know this is sort of random.

East Regional is hosted by COSSA, West Regional by WOSSAA, The South by SOSSA, and Centrals by LOSSA. The North doesn't have a meet (silly easy qual. standards), and Metro is "committee. Not going to lie, I have no idea what committee means

The North doesn't have a meet (silly easy qual. standards), This is pretty ignorant. The qualifying procedure hardly any different. It is still the top guys from the north that go to OFSAA. They just don't have a regional meet because its too far for most of the people to go to meet in one central location. The fact that the North seems weaker as a whole than the south is strictly population based.

That's not an statement of ignorance. Theres obviously quick runners coming from northern regions (Proudfoot for example) but the kind of times athletes have to run to qualify for OFSAA don't compare to the toughest associations, let alone the toughest regions.
Last year at in the SB 3000m (correct me if I'm wrong), they had the 8th and 21st place finishers. The Central Region, on the other hand, went 4, 6, 9 and 10. Again, I;m not saying they don't produce good runners, I'm just saying the north is not as deep as other regions. I understand geography comes into play, who wants to drive 100's of kms for meets? Just don't excuse posts as ignorant juvenilia without looking at the results.

Alistar Moona from Erindale ran 47.70 in the 400m today at the Marcellinus Early Bird meet, huge wind factor and without starting blocks.

In the north we have less people which means less people who do track, less people who are availible to coach and less people who are willing to put the time into going to meets and what not. As it is true that the north has less depth than th south if you look at the population difference... theres more people in Toronto than there is in all the north so i believe the statement that the north creates weak runners is an ignorant comment and is getting quite old.

No one said the north creates weak runners. Lack of depth may be one thing, but it doesn't mean that the geographical region produces sub-par runners. I think you both believe that smaller population in the north is the reason that the times to qualify for OFSAA from the north are slower than the south or central regions...

I've always thought that the regions were created to be of equal population size. As in, the north region is as large an area as it is because pop density is lower there.
I gotta back my boy, lukesteer, 99.83% on this one. The lack of depth in the North is partly due to geographical and social factors and partly due to the ever looming threat of polar bear attacks.

Let me clarify. By saying the the north seems to be weaker as a whole, I was implying that the depth is not there, not the lack of talent. There just isn't the same talent concentration in the North as there is in the south, and that is strictly population based.
