The Lucknow Sentinel, 2015-07-22, Page 10Wednesday, July 22, 2015 • Lucknow Sentinel 11 Staehli sCorrections to article in July 15 Sentinel Valerie Gillies Lucknow Sentinel Julie -Anne Staehli is cur- rently injury -free and is again competing hard, most recently at the Nationals Cross Country meet in Edmonton, Alberta. She placed third in the Steeple- chase on July 5 despite hav- ing had Achilles heel prob- lems leading up to the event. In November of 2014 Staehli had placed second at CIS in St. John, New- foundland in cross coun- try. She was experiencing Achilles problems and could not compete again until May. She normally participates in steeple- chase during spring and summer, while cross country is her fall sport. While unable to compete, Staehli kept up her train- ing on a treadmill and pool running, but was frustrated with this as she needed the competitive atmosphere to satisfy her passion. Staehli ran in a couple of road races in May and June, but did not compete again in the steeplechase until Nationals in competes at Nationals Golf tournament to help seniors to live at home Edmondton. The Nationals are neither a varsity or club competition, which meant that Staehli could compete. Even with the time off competing, she placed third in the 3000m competition. Now that she is injury free and feeling good Stae- hli is ready to work really hard to get back to serious training and higher levels of competition. Staehli will be entering her fourth year at Queens University in Kingston, where she will be competing in cross country this fall. Her mother, Cathy Staehli, reports that Julie - Anne is "a well-balanced young woman, a happy camper. Her motivation is high." At 21 years old, Stae- hli is still in her prime for competing as the strongest age for her sports is consid- ered as 27. Although she has had to compete at a lower level of meets this year Staehli remains optimistic about her future as a competitor in both steeplechase and track. After winning third in stee- plechase in Edmonton she posted this motivational quote on her facebook page. "Everyone has barriers. That's not the point. Give me some time and a little faith, and I promise to keep pushing."
