Don’t look now, but thrower John Godina is now a masters athlete. The Olympian and three-time world champ turned 35 on Thursday. I was reminded of this by an amazing new newsletter that’s being generated by Marc Grosso, “Dr. Track.” His email publication is called This Day in Athletics Weekly Newsletter. Marc sent a sample and writes: “The information covers one week (the coming week) and the information is grouped by day (Sunday to Saturday). The newsletter is rather long due to the fact that we are coming into the active portion of the Athletics season.” Here’s where to go to subscribe. Pete Mundle, eat your heart out.

Here’s a sample Marc sent:
