You might not think a resident of Montreal, Quebec wouldn't frequent many US races, let alone New England and New York, but perky Diane LeGare has certainly left her mark on those occasions she's run South of the Border.

LeGare currently owns the Senior course records at the Utica Boilermaker and Stockade-athon 15Ks (NY), Bridge of Flowers and James Joyce Ramble 10Ks (MA) and Clarence DeMar (VT) and Chris Thater (NY) 5Ks, as well as every Canadian senior women's record from 1500m thru the half marathon.

In 2001, LeGare was the overall female winner of the ING Ottawa Half Marathon in 1:21:25. In 2002, she was the second female overall at the Yankee Homecoming 10M in 1:03:42, just 16 seconds off the winning time and one place ahead of 2004 Olympic Marathon trialist Seana Carmean.

On March 13, LeGare is looking forward to running on the fast, certified An Ras Mor course and hoping for good weather.
