USATF emailed Lyon-goers Thursday on how to get their free Nike uniforms. “Each registrant will receive a complimentary uniform top for competition for the 2015 World Masters Athletics Outdoor Championships in Lyon, France, from August 4 – August 16,” said this sign-up form, which screamed (in all caps) “PLEASE COMPLETE THIS FORM PRIOR TO JUNE 30 TO ENSURE DELIVERY TO YOUR MAILING ADDRESS PRIOR TO LEAVING FOR FRANCE.” The note from Indy said, in part: “We appreciate your patience in this uniforming process, but are happy to announce the details to go about requesting your competition piece. Per WMA rules, all athletes must wear an official USA uniform top during competition. WMA officials have notified USATF that this uniform top rule will be strictly enforced throughout the competition. USATF will be supporting it’s [sic] WMA competitors this summer by providing this competition piece free of charge. … Please note that the inventory reflected on the USATF Online Store is not necessarily indicative of the available pieces for WMA competitors – we have reserved many sizes and styles specifically for this event.” Great! Let us know how the process goes.

    I received my email today with the form that needs to be submitted in order to get the uniform for Worlds. There was no mention whatsoever about discounts on additional gear as was promised when the announcement was made. Have you heard anything additional about that?

    I’ll check around.

    My order hung on “Gender”. Kept saying “Must make a selection”, and “Male” was the default.

    My uniform for the WMA was waiting for me when I got home from work today. Unfortunately the uniform article was a women’s singlet, size small (I asked for a men’s short sleeve unitard, size large). At least I received something.

    If any athletes have not received or heard from USATF regarding the free competition top, they should contact Mary Rosado, immediately, one of the team managers, at 917-400-3961 or at mvrosadoesq@prodigy.net.”
