The late Randy Sturgeon, introduced in December 2006, granted us permission to post every NMN through end of 2006.

Late owner Randy Sturgeon, introduced in December 2006, granted us permission to post every NMN through end of 2006.

Thanks to funding from the USATF Masters T&F Committee, our historical archive has grown. On New Year’s Eve, I uploaded five years’ worth of National Masters News to mastershistory.org. Some 316 issues are now online — every edition of every year through 2006 except 2003 and 2004 (which I misplaced from the Al Sheahen Collection). Sorry. In 2016, the missing years will go online. As always, every PDF is searchable, which means you can use Google to find yourself and friends. (Tip: Type site:mastershistory.org “Your Name” into Google.) Our budget also will pay for the scanning of photos that trace to the beginnings of our sport, including thousands that appeared in NMN. These photos will be high-resolution — available for anyone to fetch and print. Happy new year, y’all! Enjoy these papers.

    Is also be a great resource of looking up
    past information of Potential Meet Records
    or Potential Hall of Fame athletes.

    Past NMN issues had yearly lists of age groups
    and events …. lots of meet results and lots
    of great articles/stories.

    Thank you again to NMN, David Pain and many others.
