PlanAxion strongly believes in the benefits of physical activity and competition for young people. With this in mind, we are proud to have sponsored the Montreal Athletics Classic for the second year in a row. This year, the women’s 100-metre hurdles race was named the “PlanAxion 100m Hurdles.”
The Athletics Classic is a high-calibre international event that attracts a large number of Canadian athletes. In fact, it was their final chance to qualify for the Tokyo Olympic Games. It was a spectacular event to witness!
We are proud to have contributed to this world-class event. The PlanAxion team members are fitness enthusiasts who all agree on one thing: sports competition helps young people find their passion and push their limits. Sport conveys important societal values, including perseverance and sharing. A true track and field enthusiast, our partner Jean-François Oligny had the honour of presenting the awards to the winners:
#3: Astrid Nyame — Canada (13.46 seconds)
#2: Myriam Abdul-Rashid — Canada (13.28 seconds)
#1: Farah Jacques — Canada (13.28 seconds)
