Bradstock makes best masters showing at Indy nationals
Our 36-year-old sprinters had a rough time at USATF open nationals yesterday in Indianapolis. In the men’s prelims, Jeff Laynes finished in 14.94 seconds after pulling a muscle and limping in. And Chryste Gaines fell short in her comeback, clocking the day’s slowest women’s time, 11.69. But hey! How about our 45-year-old spearchucker? Arne Roald Bradstock took 12th with a toss of 70.44 meters ( 231-01) on his first throw. He had only three throws, and didn’t get a final three.
Today’s events (Friday) include some more masters:
Sandra Glover, 38, is in Heat 2 of the 400 hurdles.
Jeff Hartwig, 39, is in the vault final.
Go get ’em!
