2024 OFSAA Cross-Country Championships
After a season of relentless dedication, Juliet Chieduch '26 pushed herself harder than ever to qualify for the Provincial Championships at the CISAA Championships last month. As a first-year senior, qualifying would be more challenging as she now was competing against both Grade 11 and 12 athletes. Juliet placed 5th overall, which guaranteed her a spot to compete at the OFSAA XC Championships in Ottawa on November 4th.
Juliet has trained tirelessly at school and outside of school with her track club, showing up to every practice with unwavering focus and grit. On the day of the race, it was cold and rainy, but this did not deter her as she was super excited to race.
During the race, she faced unexpected setbacks, stumbling not once, but twice. Yet, she refused to let these falls define her performance. Summoning all her strength and determination, she pushed herself back up each time and continued forward, her focus fixed firmly on the finish line. Despite the physical and mental toll, she persevered, crossing the line placing 83rd with the pride of knowing she gave it her all.
Juliet’s journey was a testament to resilience, proving that champions are those who rise every time they fall. Congratulations Juliet and the rest of the cross-country team on a fantastic season! Ms. Steadman is very proud of all that you accomplished.
