Rodrigues Climbs Podium at OFSAA XC

 
On a snowy Saturday in Sudbury, Sierra Rodrigues added to her 2019 accomplishments by taking the silver medal in the Junior girls race at the OFSAA Cross Country Championships.
 
Sierra, the ROPSSAA champion from St. Michaels in Bolton, pushed to the front from the gun & stayed in contention throughout the cold & snowy 5.2K race.
 
Her silver medal performance was an upgrade from last years 5th place finish.
 
Rodrigues, one half of 310 Running’s Glimmer Twins, has quietly put together a breakout season & will add her newest OFSAA medal to the silver & bronze medals that she earned at the OFSAA Track & Field Championships in Guelph this past summer.
 
 
Sierra is now preparing for the Athletics Ontario Championships in King City, ON followed by Athletics Canada National Championships in Abbotsford, BC at the end of November.

Viva Las Vegas


During the 2019 March Break, 310 Running headed to Las Vegas, Nevada for its annual warm weather training camp. The team took advantage of clear skies & unlimited sunshine to transition from their indoor to outdoor track season.
 
With the support of UNLV & Pearson Community Center, the team had access to everything required to get in some solid steeplechase, mid-distance, sprint & strength training. In addition to training, our athletes had the chance to compete in their first NCAA meet at the UNLV Spring Invitational.
 
And of course, the track training was augmented with some unbelieveable hikes in Red Rock Canyon, Valley of Fire State Park & Zion National Park.
 
Special thanks go to Donna Maurice who kept everyone fuelled up & moving and Coach Gord Everett who took time away from his first vacation in 15 years to lead our strength & conditioning workouts.
 
The 2020 training camp is tentatively scheduled for March 17-24. Stay tuned for details.
