Where Are They Now Dept.: Stan Vegar is rowing

At the 1997 nationals in San Jose, one of the many studs who beat me in the M40 long hurdles was Stan Vegar, a fellow San Diegan. Better known as a decathlete (in which he once held the M40 American record), Stan vanished from the masters scene after that. Now I learn (from my Union-Tribune colleague Don Norcross) that Stan just dove into his other love — rowing. Don writes about Stan in this week’s Fitness Fanatics column. Now 51, Stan is still the picture of health and happiness. (But we miss you on the track, Stan!)
