Cam Levins, 29, of Black Creek, British Columbia, ran his first marathon in Toronto and broke Jerome Drayton’s Canadian men’s record of 43 years. Levins, debuting on his home soil, ran the 42.2-kilometer race, the annual Toronto Waterfront Marathon, and finished 44 seconds ahead of Drayton’s run at the 1975 Japanese Fukuoka Marathon. Levins said, “I was feeling good throughout most of the race, and I made it through the last 10K.” He said he was thinking he was going to take back his career, and that is exactly what he did. He and his wife Elizabeth took a cruise to the Bahamas after the race and Levins plans to run another marathon after he returns.
