Ever tried running during a busy time of day? Cars stink! It doesn't smell good, nor is it good for us or the environment. Athletics is in an outdoor sport - we need clean air to train and to compete. As kids and young adults playing outside and playing sports, it is even more important as the respiratory system isn't fully developed - making you more at risk to the poor air quality and creating problems
I am a Clean Air Champion because I care about the environment. It is our duty to make our world livable (and breathable!) for future generations - it matters even more now that I have two little kids! As an athlete I have an opportunity to put my words into action and encourage others to care also. It isn't 'hard' work and doesn't require extra time, it's just being a little more conscious and maybe a little more physical activity for each us that won't hurt us at all!!
Measuring 1.70m (5'7"), Wanita can jump 22cm over her own head (1.92cm). She has won the National Championships many times, as a junior and as a senior. She has competed internationally for Canada since she was 16 years old. She won the 2001 Francophone Games, was 15th at the World Championships that same year and ranked 35th in the world. At 17 years old, she jumped 1.92m, ranked 2nd in the world for juniors (19 and under) that year. Recently, Wanita has not been training as she has a family now - she is now even more concerned about the environment and Clean air issues!
