November street mile for over-65s features M60 Steve Scott visit

Ryan Lamppa, founder of bringbackthemile.com, shares news of a street mile on the Oceanside coast, a half-hour north of San Diego. It’s called the Tri-City Medical Center Festival of Senior Miles. The race targets 65-plus, but will include a cameo by former American mile record-holder Steve Scott, 61, who coaches in the area. Ryan writes of the event at 9 a.m. Wednesday, Nov. 22: “The cost is $30. Each senior participating will receive a T-shirt, Tri-City Medical Center backpack, custom Trot medal and Senior Mile neck ribbon plus free finish line photos. Family members are welcome to participate free of charge to provide assistance if needed. Family members will not receive above amenities without registering (shirt, medal, finish food, backpacks, etc.).” Sign-up info is here, including a photo of last year’s oldest entrant, a 96-year-old lady named Mickey Stolzoff (who started but didn’t finish, apparently).
