Introducing our store! Shop masterstrack.com for gifts


It’s 5 days to Christmas or Hanukkah, and you don’t know what to buy your running, jumping or throwing dad, wife or neighbor! What to do? Have we got a store for you! Thanks to my son Bobby and his design skills, masterstrack.com now has an outpost on CafePress featuring all manner of masters track products — shirts, caps, mugs, bags and much else. CafePress, which hosts 2.6 million online shops (see Wikipedia’s article), has a great reputation for high-quality products and service. It does all production and delivery. (Here’s another review and a company profile.) We just supply the designs and set the profit margin. (Which is minimal in our case.) Why go beyond our original T-shirt and mousepad offerings? Because you deserve greater choice, and because this CafePress site allows for easy expansion. Bottom line: It’s a great way to promote masters track and help masterstrack.com deliver independent coverage of our sport. (And it might defray some of my Lahti expenses.) The site isn’t set in stone, however. (Forgive the pun.) We can tweak designs to meet popular demand. We can add slogans. You can help us devise more clever mottos than “Old hammer throwers do it with steel chains” or “Old vaulters do it with a slight bend.” We hope to add a 2009 calendar with some of the great photos seen in our Gallery. Got ideas? Write me. In the end, this is your store! Let’s have some fun.
