Olympic champion Thane Baker could be your starter
Wayne Bennett down in Texas writes about the Texas Masters Championships set for July 26 at Coppell High School, northwest of Dallas. “We think we run a really good meet,” says Wayne, an M70 sprint star. “Field events start at 9 a.m. and running events start at 6 p.m. Entry form is available under schedule at www.dallasmasters.com. Everyone is welcome. It is an open and masters meet, no youth division but they are welcome to run in open division. Our starter is Olympic gold and silver medalist Thane Baker, one of the best in the business. Coppell just completely rebuilt their facilities so the track should be fast and we have automatic timing.”

If you can’t get the entry form to come up, e-mail me and I will e-mail you an entry form.
I guess it would help if you knew my e-mail address:vwrunner2002@yahoo.com
Wayne, I haven’t competed in a while and I look forward to running in my 4th Texas Masters Meet….there’s nothing like the evening heat in July in Texas!
Maybe I’ll be able to shed the remaining “manflab” for nationals that day 🙂
The Thane Baker? His hometown is famous for that other guy who ran a lot named Glenn Cunningham.
