Don Lein congratulates W60 star Christine Kennedy on an AR at 2015 USATF 8K Masters Championships in Brea, California.
and
Michael Scott are running for chairman of the USATF Long Distance Running Division at the Orlando annual meeting. Generally, I ignore roadies, but many of my LDR friends also compete on the track. So for their sake, I hope the right choice is made. Don is probably the best known candidate to masters, since he’s been Masters LDR Committee chair forever.
He also covered masters for Runner’s World. (One of our masters runners,
Mary Rosado, was among his nominators.) According to
ballot statements released Tuesday, Teddy has been meet director of Albuquerque masters indoor nationals. And Michael wants to “partner” with Masters LDR to enhance the road and XC circuits. It’s possible LDR has other chair candidates that didn’t submit statements. (No statements from
Rex Harvey or
Robert Thomas, for example.) So who do you like for LDR chair? The vote takes place Saturday morning, Dec. 3. BTW, I got a response Tuesday from USATF prez hopeful
Vin Lananna on my masters-centric questions. Still waiting on reply from
Jackie Joyner-Kersee. She has until Thanksgiving (in case you know her and can light a fire).
