www.insideHALTON.com | OAKVILLE BEAVER | Thursday, August 13, 2015 | 46 Guay happy to see results of training finally paying off Continued from p. 44 American Raevyn Rogers set a strong early pace but Guay and Canadian teammate Erinn Stenman-Fahey patiently sat at the back of the pack. Rogers would cruise to the gold, 3 ½ seconds ahead of the rest of the field, but Guay picked off runners off over the final 200 metres to work her way up to second before Morales' late charge allowed her to edge Guay by six onehundredths of a second. "It was a good lesson that it's not over until it's over," Guay said. "I tried to hold her off but she made her move so late I wasn't able to respond quick enough." Guay added a second bronze medal with the women's 4x400m relay team on Sunday. Surprised to be added to the team, Guay said she had just one concern running the second leg. "I was nervous. I just wanted to make sure I stayed in my lane," she said, hoping to avoid the fate that cost Canadian men's relay teams medals at both the London Olympics and the Pan Am Games in Toronto. She did better than that. She ran an unofficial best time of 55 seconds before handing off to the Canadian 400m specialists for the final two legs. For Guay, the second medal was both a reward and an indication she's back on the right track. "It feels so great to put in so much hard work and have that pay off and see the results," she said. Jones 18th in Rio triathlon Oakville's Kyle Jones was the top Canadian triathlete at an Olympic test event last weekend in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. The 2012 Olympian clocked a time of 1:50:38 to finish 18th overall on the course that will host next year's Olympic triathlon races. It was the first full race since the spring for the 30-year-old, who recovered from a broken bone in his back in time to compete in last month's Pan Am Games, only to be knocked out of the race by a freak accident during the bicycle stage.
