Team USA roster for Kamloops posted: nearly 300 entered
Jeff Brower over at usatfmasters.org, our new portal, has posted the complete roster of U.S. entrants for Kamloops worlds. See it here. I’ve been helping Bob Weiner (attending his first world meet) prepare a press release on the event, and I’m awed by the strength of our squad, which numbers 298 and includes Bill Collins, Mike Waller, Phil Raschker, Rita Hanscom, Kathy Martin, Becky Sisley, Jeanne Daprano, Christel Donley, Bill Murray and Nolan Shaheed. Nick Berra will be a beast in the middle distances, and Kathy is entered in about five indoor and outdoor events, including the half-marathon — a total of 21.5 miles on tap (if she doesn’t scratch.) I won’t be going, so please post your observations here in early March.

Robert and Annette Koop in Germany report:
We are a new registration numbers from Europe for the 4th Indoor World Championships early next month in Canada. The British send a team of 64 athletes (42 men and 22 women). Team Manager is the “BMAF Race Walking Secretary John Hall. Austria has now announced yet another 14 starters. Disappointing, the figures from France (27), Italy (22) and Finland, which sends only 8 starters. (04.02.10)

Maurice Doogan, team manager of the British world masters teams, isn’t going to Kamloops but posted this note to inform fellow cash-strapped UK athletes who would like to compete at a major indoor meet in March (but not in Canada):
