Laurentian University cross-country runner
star Alicia Kaye has qualified for the World Triathlon
Championships, to be held in September in Japan.
Kaye, who hails from Pickering, has been
dominating triathlon events all summer with numerous victories
and solid finishes.
In late July, Kaye finished fourth at the ITU
Caledon Pan American Cup, which qualified her for the Canadian
Under-23 National Team.
"I am very excited about this result and
having the chance to compete at the World Championships," said
Kaye in a news release. "This has been a personal goal all
season and I am thrilled I could achieve it."
To help subsidize Kaye's trip to Japan for
the World Championships, FitFriends has organized the Alicia
"5" Kaye trail run, which will take place Sunday, Aug. 28 in
Fielding Park.
Registration is $10 and it includes a race
kit.
