Aaron Brown completes sprint double with 200-metre title at track and field nationals

For all the national championship titles Aaron Brown has won throughout his lengthy sprinting career, these ones in the Township of Langley, B.C., this week felt a little different.

On Sunday afternoon in sweltering heat, Brown sprinted past the rest of the field to win the men's 200-metre title in a time of 20.03 seconds. Jerome Blake finished second in a time of 20.32.

In the women's 200m final, Natassha McDonald ran a personal best time of 22.67 to win the national title. While it was below the world standard, there was an illegal wind which means the time doesn't count.

It was McDonald's first national championship.

Brown's victory gives him 10 national titles and it's the fourth time he's won both the 100m and 200m events at the same national championship.

"The other ones, it's easy to take them for granted sometimes because you're always focused on the big championships. You want that glory. But wow. Ten times. That's a lot. We have some great people in Canada in the sprints," Brown said after the race.

At 30 years old, Brown is approaching the winter of his career. But in the summer heat he put on a show, capturing the 100m and 200m titles – marking the fourth time he's won
