Masters lose McMahon meet, but add San Diego open event
Although the Chuck McMahon meet this year was canceled, another meet in San Diego is welcoming masters tracksters. The event, called the San Diego-Imperial USATF Open Championships, will be held June 14 at Point Loma Nazarene University, whose track overlooks the Pacific. A gorgeous venue, it hosted the San Diego Senior Olympics last year. Tonie Campbell of SDI USATF writes me: “Adam Henderson will be forwarding you the info sheet shortly. We had to tweak a few things before we sent it out. Yes, Masters athletes are welcome; however, we will not be running hurdles at different heights or event distances due to time constraints.” Tonie, of course, is the Olympic hurdles medalist from 1988. Adam Henderson is the father of two-time Olympian Monique Henderson, who won relay golds in 2004 and 2008. (Update: The meet entry form is now posted here.)
