Update: Seeking roomie for dorms June 21-28 at Olympic Trials

I’m covering the Eugene Olympic Trials in late June for Patch.com and have reservations in a dorm near Hayward Field. My wife, Chris, will stay with me the final three nights (June 29-30 and July 1). But I can share the room with someone else (male nonsmoker) the nights of June 21-28. (My first roomie for opening three days fell through with a family crisis.) We’d split the cost of the room, which has two beds but no air conditioning (not a problem usually). Your share would be about $65. This includes several meal tickets in the dorm cafeteria. Such a deal! If you are interested in staying with me all eight nights or a portion, please write me at TrackCEO@aol.com. First preference goes to hurdlers who can pep-talk me into reviving my career. (Kidding.)

    dorm food at U. Oregon is amazing – or has been in the past – and assume it still is. Not being male nor going to Eugene – I will have to pass on this great deal – but some guy out there – it is a sweet deal – go for it.

    Mary H. is right- AWESOME food in the cafeteria! Nice, clean rooms/restrooms/showers. Hope someone takes Ken up on his offer!

    Having lived in the dorms at UoO in the 80s and having stayed there for Master Natls 2000 and 2003 I can only chime in, awesome food for being a dorm scenario, the only place I found equally great food was at the dorm cafeteria at Oshkosh Masters Natls 09!!

    I am NOT a guy but shared a dorm room with Jim Barraneau at the last Olympic Trials there and it worked out fine. Consider it.

    If I shared a room with you, we would be up until 3am talking track. Or working until 3am uploading our photos, videos and stories!

    Anyone looking for a dorm room that doesn’t fit Ken’s criteria (female, or need later dates), I know of some available dorm rooms. Email Kris Mack mackkh@ucmail.uc.edu
