Ryan Douglas represents the Canadian “hard to break” profile — durable, steady, and comfortable in uncomfortable places. In Regionals, that mindset is a weapon: the athletes who rise are the ones who keep making good decisions while everyone else starts forcing it. Ryan’s strength is consistency across stations — not needing hero moments, just keeping every segment efficient and keeping the run legs from turning into damage control.
Washington DC watch: If the field goes out hot and starts paying for it, Ryan’s discipline can turn the second half into a steady climb through bodies.
