(Calgary) Humboldt speed skater William Dutton won the 500 on day one of the Canada Cup 1 in Calgary at the Olympic Oval. Dutton followed up with a fourth place finish in the 1000. This was Dutton's last race before he departs for the International Skating Union's World Sprint Championships in Obihiro Japan.
The Canadian team is sending four men and two women to the Championships. Dutton is representing Canada for the second time in less than a year. He finished seventh in the world last year in the 500 combined at the World Junior Championships. Dutton is also expected to skate in Saskatoon at the Canada Cup 2 in late January.
