Parkland stock car race results
By CHASE RUTTIG N-R Writer
Sunday was a great day for local stock car racing fans as the Parkland Racing Association held races at the Yellowhead International Speedway. Thunderstock and Streetstock events were run as well as a ladies and mechanics race to round out what was a solid day of racing at the Yellowhead track. Big winners of the day were Dustin Randall, Ryan Atkings
and Jen Atkings took the lone ladies glory by winning the ladies race heat. All in all it was a good, clear day which made for some good racing as track conditions were prime and drivers didn’t have to worry about any potential rain with clear skies and sun as the events forecast.

The Health Foundation recently wrapped up its Walk to Run clinic. The clinic held two weekly sessions for anyone who was interested in improving their running/walking abilities in preparation for The Health Foundation Charity Road Race. The clinic held two sessions a week on Tuesday and Thursday and allowed participants of all ages to improve their fitness at their own pace and choose whether to walk or run. Bernie Wlock, clinic’s instructor mentioned that the progress of the
clinic’s participants was very visible citing, “We had a lot of people who have never ran before, and now they can run five kilometers.” The clinic which ended this week generally has a solid turnout even when the weather is not cooperating and that the morale of the participants is high as many of the runners mentioned how fun and enjoyable the program was and that the opportunity to get fitness and activity was not taken for granted. The Charity Road Race is August 19 and offers five km, ten km, and half marathon events for all levels of runners.

Connor Lutz takes silver in IPF Cup By CHASE RUTTIG N-R Writer Local powerlifter Connor Lutz put Yorkton on the international powerlifting map in the IPF World Classic Cup in Stockholm, Sweden. Lutz, who was in the 83 kg weight class for the event, earned a silver medal in the bench press event at the IPF Cup giving the young Lutz an impressive showing at the international event. Lutz also vaulted to seventh place in the world rankings with an impressive showing in all three of his events at the IPF World Classic Cup in addition to his silver medal. Lutz was
ranked fourteenth out of twenty-three competitors heading into the World Classic Cup making his silver medal performance in the bench press even more impressive for the young Lutz, who was only ranked at the number twelve position in Canada before the event. Connor was the second youngest competitor in the competition and looks to have a bright future in powerlifting ahead of him with this impressive showing in Sweden. Lutz, who was born and raised in Yorkton took up powerlifting after playing on the University of Huskies football team.
