The 2022 World Athletics Championships wrapped up in Eugene on Sunday, capping off a thrilling 10 days of competition. There were several highlights from our Canadian team, including Cam Levins‘ brilliant marathon performance. Cam finished 4th in 2:07:10. This was not only a personal best and improvement on his own Canadian record of over 2 minutes, it was also the highest finish ever by a Canadian at the World Championships.

Cam Levins (@CamLevins) knew he was a 2:07 runner before anybody else did.

Today, the BC athlete with unwavering confidence and focus is fourth in the world.
