Canadian track and field team unveiled for Rio Olympics - News Summed Up

Canadian track and field team unveiled for Rio Olympics


Justyn Warner and Gavin Smellie were left off and will not get a chance to redeem Canada's bronze medal disqualification from London 2012. It's a deep and varied team with podium threats in both the track events and the field events. The track and field events begin on Aug. 12, the second Friday of Rio 2016, and run until closing ceremony day on Aug. 21. Canada sent 51 athletes to the world championships in 2015, considered the most competitive world event outside the Olympics. It will mark the first time that a Canadian has attempted such a double at the Olympics.
