Veteran Tyler Mislawchuk and rookies Emy Legault and Charles Paquet will represent Canada in triathlon in the Olympic Games in Paris .
Legault of L’Ile Perrot, Que., helped Canada win a Pan American Games bronze medal in the mixed team relay and placed sixth in women’s triathlon in Santiago, Chile in 2023. “My first Games in Rio, I was just so excited to make the team as an underdog. Tokyo, I came in with a lot stronger odds on me and I ended up injuring myself, and now I find myself in Paris in the prime of my career ready to rip.
“I always struggle with the idea that I’m a role model or I will inspire others with my performances, but I just hope my story shows that if a small town kid who grew up in the middle of the prairies in Oak Bluff, Manitoba training in minus 50 degrees can make it to the Summer Olympics then anyone can get there and compete against the best in the world.”
