The results are in

It's been a very busy year for the famous family athlete.

She's done interviews to explain how it all began, her coach was asked for his input on the matter of who she is and what she can accomplish, and then there was the Fesival of Excellence, held this year in Toronto at the newly-refurbished Varsity Stadium.

She's always said that family support is of utmost importance for her, whether they are physically present at the races, or half way around the world. The excitement that is generated is enough to make any onlooker catch the fever.

The video is not yet posted, but she placed second in a very tight final race today, ceding the top position to her long-time rival and friend Perdita Felicien who has made major strides and come back from the major disappointment she experienced at the Olympic Games in Athens (2004). Their long-time fellow competitor, Alberta's Angela White, placed third in the final competition which took place this afternoon at Varsity Stadium in Toronto.
