Tony Young’s son, Mack, runs away with state XC title
Tony Young, our M45 masters mile legend, may have lost his status as Best Runner in the House. His son Mack, still only a junior, won the Washington 4A state high school cross country championship last weekend in the eastern Washington town of Pasco. Story and photo are here. Tony posted the news on the letsrun.com message board thread devoted to masters running in the previous week, saying: “He is numb, and so are his mom and dad.” Congrats to everyone in the Young home!

Congratulations to Mack and to father Tony. Hope to see Tony in the 1500 and 800 at the 2009 outdoor nationals (Oshkosh). That depends, of course, on whether I go out there to work the meet. Perhaps Tony or others will be staying at the meet hotel, which will be on Westowne Avenue in Oshkosh (various facts and figures for the meet hotel and other lodging are now up on the Web site, which is at USATF.org).
