Geoff Martinson

Geoff received official word today that he has been selected to the Canadian Track and Field to for the World Championships in Daegu, South Korea.

Geoff leaves Sunday for a 10 day camp in Korea.

His first race will be the 1500m prelims on Aug. 30th at 11:20 am Korea time (I believe they are 16 hours ahead of us).  So if my calculations are correct that would mean 7:20 pm on the 29th here.

After that, the semi-finals are on Sept. 1st and finals are on Sept. 3rd.

Here is the schedule: Timetable

Watch the race here:  http://www.runmartinson.ca/

He has now met the criteria for selection to Canada’s World Championship team as a “rising star”. There are a couple of ways to qualify for the WC team.

1. Finish in the top 3 at Nationals and then run the “A” standard time (3:35), or
2. Finish in the top 3 at Nationals and then run two “B” standard times (3:38). This is the “rising star” category. Its not automatic like the first option and is somewhat up to the discretion of Athletics Canada as outlined below.

“RISING STAR” SELECTION PROCESS
Notwithstanding the Criteria contained in this document and its appendices, and in exceptional
circumstances, the NTC may, in its sole discretion, identify athletes/relays as ‘rising stars’ and
may select them to the World Championship team.
6.1 Eligibility Pool
The ‘Rising Star’ Eligibility Pool will consist of athletes/relays who have not competed at an IAAF
World Championships in Athletics (Senior aged) or Olympic Games and who are not otherwise
selectable (as per the Repeat Performance Schedule in Appendix B), but have minimally
achieved two (2) “B” standards between May 20th and August 6th, 2011 and finished in the Top 3
at the Selection Trials (where applicable) and beat all athletes not selected through the standard
selection process.

Geoff believes he will find out if he has made the team in the first week of August.  In any case he will be spending time in Germany doing some training before his last meet in Gent on the 30th.

G. JULY 23 practise is cancelled.
Most of the junior group would like be in Kamloops for the JD meet and few of the senior athletes would likely be coming out after the Jamboree so it is not a great inconvenience that the City informed us that our practise time was given to another event.  The Canadian Junior Football League will be hosting the Chilliwack Huskers and the Kamloops Bronco’s.

Club practises will continue till July 3oth.

H.  Junior Development Meet

The entries for the JD Meet are due on Friday the 15th.  Hopefully we have most of the entries by tonight.  If you don’t get your entries in tonight you will have to email them directly to me by Friday.
