t-and-f: Colemanballs

Some recent quotes from BBC TV's answer to Yogi Berra, track and field commentator David Coleman She [Fiona May] only lost out on the gold medal because Niurka Montalvo, the Spanish athlete, jumped a longer distance than her. I put that down to lack of inexperience. Is that a

RE: t-and-f: believe it or not

I'm skating without data here, but I think the following folks were under 25 when they set their WRs: Viren, Rono, Aouita, ElG, Morcelli, Cram, Coe, Geb, Komen (he was 21 I believe!), Kimombwa. Fair enough Rich. But for those who think that naming names of WR holders who did so under 25,

Mike Contopoulos says: There is not one solid reason why getting your son out there running at an early age is any worse than having him play any other sport at an early age. Because distance running IS NOT any other sport. Last time I checked it was more stressful than golf and baseball,

What few kids do now in the USA is incorporate moving over the ground as part of childhood play. Long before I thought of running on a team in a competition I ran around for transportation, back in my 1950s childhood, in my dungarees and US keds. Running was part of play, whether a cowboy or an

t-and-f: Small fields at Goodwill

Possibly interesting some pretty small fields at the Goodwill games, which could make for some interesting strategy. For example, in the men's 10k, there are 7 people listed on the web site start list. With $20k for the winner and $12k for 2nd, are we going to see a big sit and kick, or

t-and-f: Re: Regarding preprofessionalization and hard working distance runners

Bannister did not set the ultimate WR. His mark was beaten many times throughout the 1950s. Runners like the Hungarians, Czechs, Russians, and Australians trained much harder than those in the past, and forced records down in all events from the 1500 on up. Marks that were world records in

What would your reaction be to your own child (not as a coach or knowledgable runner, but as a parent)? What would most parents be today? Today's parents are also always right with the kids of all ages in many sports all the time. Thus you have 5 hour trips to soccer matches - something

t-and-f: Goodwill coverage--notes from Brisbane

If you tape the (very) early morning live coverage on TNT, you stand a better chance of seeing more track, since the evening show gets edited. The entire women's 5k was shown, and the men's 5k is scheduled to get the same treatment. Can't say the same for the remaining distance races, which

Sidenote - the morning coverage women's 5k was not only covered completely, but without a single commercial interruption for entire 15min+extra time before the start and after the finish. This has gotta be an american record of some sort in terms of coverage. Oleg. - Original Message -
