Potential Corinnidae - Castianeira descripta

Potential Corinnidae - Castianeira descripta
City Park Neighborhood - Saskatoon, Central Saskatchewan, Saskatchewan, Canada
July 27, 2016
Saw this little fella skitter across the sidewalk on my walk to Rugby training. It stopped briefly and I was able to grab a few quick shots with a cellphone camera and then it skittered off on its adventure. The sidewalk was bordering Wilson Park and there was a small community garden nearby so vegetation was quite mixed. I am guessing Corinnidae from similar photos though google images but I could not find an exact match.
