Re: t-and-f: Mt. SAC chatter

I believe Tarasov opened at 5.90 (19-4 1/4) once two years ago when he jumped 5.90+ in like 18 of 20 competitions. Not too sure though. When was the last time 3 Americans jumped over 19-feet in the same competition? s.devereaux Margaret Robert Tatar wrote: PV: LoJo opened at 19-03/4 -- and

RE: t-and-f: Elite expectations

So split the difference and say 3:52 should be a realistic target for today's best American high schoolers. Unrealistic? Burnout territory? Well how's this observation: shouldn't 3:52 be a good target for somebody who hopes to match the American record by the end of his college years, and the

Re: t-and-f: promo of Mt. SAC

I am mad at Mt SAC too. (or the results program) The Greater Boston Track Club sent athletes to the meet at considerable effort and expense. I find their names in the results but no affiliation. Only unattached. It seemed only colleges were listed. Not clubs. There is a lack of post

Re: t-and-f: featured athletes at Mt SAC,

Yep, true enough---American records in both Men's and Women's mile walks. Michele Rohl and Curt Clausen. Two fairly decent names in the sport of race walkingalso, Mike Rohl with a master's record in Clausen's race. Scott

Re: t-and-f: Mt. SAC chatter

Have not had a chance to see Tyree yet this year, but have watched his results over the past few weeks ... Read in TFN that he is now working with Jim Bush and that Bush said that Tyree is the most talented athlete he has coached ... If that is true and Tyree is "serious" Then we could be in for

t-and-f: measurement of a HS record

Is there anything special that has to happen when measuring a potential Nat. HS record in a throwing event? do you need a steel tape etc? My undertanding is that the international javelin records are separate from the high school javelin records since the implement is different. Kendra Wecker

Re: t-and-f: promo of Mt. SAC

People who run meets are NOT necessarlity ignorant of clubs. As I pointed out to Tom in an earlier post, we had massive computer problems over the weekend, including the mainframe on campus going down for part of Sat and most of Sun. This is why we could not get anything up on the web. I am

t-and-f: Ritzenhein going for 5000 record on Friday

Dathan Ritzenhein will be going after the 5000 meters national high school record of 13:44.0 (Gerry Lindgren, 1964) at the Penn Relays on Friday evening. He'll be running in the Olympic Development event so there'll be plenty of fast folks in front of him; partial lineup from PR website below.

Re: t-and-f: promo of Mt. SAC

Ah hah ... I was wondering why I couldn't get any results during the meet ... Didn't want to complain and gladI didn't ... Was actually tough waiting til the end of the meet since I have beome accustomed to "real time" results ... Just shows how "spoiled" we have gotten with internet access ... I

Re: t-and-f: promo of Mt. SAC

I dare say that most of the people doing the bellyaching about results have never run a major (or even minor) meet in their lives. I have run Conference and dual meets and the best you can hope for is no complaints. Most of us would keep over with a heart attack (no pun intended Scott) if we

t-and-f: Mt. Sac Scott Davis

Everyone who likes track should not only cut him some slack but get down on his/her hands and knees and thank Scott, not only for his work at Mt Sac but his generous help at every meet he attends. Without him, this sport would stick another toe in the grave. Philip Hersh Olympic Sports

t-and-f: Marathon falloff: What about the women?

There is certainly a cultural part to the change in composition in the elite marathoners. Everyone has concentrated on the men, but what about the women? In 1984, the first year of the Olympic marathon for women, the top runners were all westerners (primarily European - save for the Olympic

Netters, Have you ever been frustrated by having to use the outer lanes of the local high school or college track for your distance interval workouts. You know what you want to do in Lane 1 but are not sure how to adapt your plan to the outer lanes. You could give up on using the track, you

Re: t-and-f: promo of Mt. SAC

Having served as a meet director, as a club coordinator and as a clerk, I'd ask all three to cut each other some slack. Mistakes are usual unintentional in the heat of battle and all of you make critical contributions to the sport. And I look forward to the year I can get out to Mt. Sac after

After my previous post on demographics, I checked the stats on USA births. The number peaked at 4.3 million in 1957, then dropped until 1975 when it hit bottom at about 3 million. Since then the echo boomers have brought the number up to about 4 million again. The bottom line is that there

Re: t-and-f: Elite expectations

The only point I wished to make was that 3:52 at age 18 seems to be a reasonable progression for somebody with eventual world record aspirations- (on TODAY's WR scale, not a 30-year old WR) we shouldn't discourage somebody like that with scare tactics that 'they're burning themselves out' and
