I haven't heard anything about IAAF tour status.
Between this meet, the big Stanford distance show, and Portland
and Eugene-
what is the IAAF recognizing this year, and at what level?
This information is on the IAAF website:

Give the fans what we really want-a monthly column by Malmo. With all due
respect to the author of the editors column, I would venture a guess that
it would increase circulation exponentially.

Doesn't work like that, sadly. Individual writers rarely increase
circulation by much. Trust me, I know. My magazine, Athletics Today,
had the best writers on the sport in the UK (OK so we also had a column
by Linford Christie, maybe that cancelled it out) but couldn't overtake

This could be a fun addition the mag though - the monthly rant. One
month on drugs ... the next month on how racewalkers are all cheaters ...
the next month on Jon Entine ... the next month on the ineptness of USATF's
media policy...
Darn it, I see I'm too late to call dibs on the new mascot.

Randall,
sorry I didn't include closed captioning for the sarcastically impaired
(eventhough I think the column could be a great thing, but definitely not
Malmo's style or venue). Good advice to TnF News though.

My two cents (if I haven't already spent them): Webb should have run
cross country last fall. His 3:53 was set up, I believe, by the hard
training he did for cross country the previous fall.
Looks like he is taking your advice to step up to the plate. Walt Murphy is

Any others? How were they financed, how are they utilized,
