It had already been a long day before the Bob Vigars Classic got started on Saturday night, as day 2 of the OFSAA West Regionals concluded. Many of our volunteers had already put in 8+hrs that day, as well as the day before. While a tired, but still cheery crew of volunteers kept plugging away, well-rested athletes arrived ready to heat up the track. 4 stadium records were broken at the our meet this year, showing that the Bob Vigars Classic is a meet that should be on your calendar next year! Andre Ford-Azonwanna kicked things off winning the men's 100m with a time of 10.37s. He was the class of the field, but it was a strong one, with the slowest time in the final being 10.82s.

Athletes at WOSSA had to endure a wide range of weather patterns over the 2 days last week. Day 1 saw 30 degrees and sunshine, combined with gale-force winds all day long. It was a challenging environment to compete in. Day 2 saw relief from the heat, but perhaps too much, as the temperature dropped to singlet digits for a good part of the day, but less wind.
