The biggest of those dreams is to be the first man to clear nine metres in the long jump. Another sizeable goal of mine is to bring home an Olympic gold medal for Canada. Some may call me crazy or tell me I should be more “realistic,” but that’s what people always say to anyone who dreams of doing things no one else has done before.

The future is bright for the Brampton, Ont., native despite finishing in eighth place after a jump of 7.58 metres in the men’s long jump final at the NACAC (North America, Central America and the Caribbean) track and field championships in Toronto on Sunday afternoon.

This past May, Kerr soared to a new personal best of 8.14 metres becoming the first Canadian to crack the eight-metre barrier in 16 years — just six centimetres shy of the mark set by Edrick Floreal in 2001.

I GOT MY TEAM CANADA GEAAR AND JUST WANTED TO SHOW Y’ALL!!!
