As a member of the USA Sports Medicine Network (and a lifetime member of the Dolphin Club), I was asked to travel with the national USA Synchro synchronized swimming team as physical therapist/trainer. As of 2018, the sport has been renamed to Artistic Swimming. That is the name that everyone will hear in next year’s Olympics in Tokyo. Five thirty wake up calls for breakfast, followed by a 45-minute ride from the village to the pool and two hours of pool time practice with music, and another two hours or more practice without music. I am at the pool with the athletes throughout the day for necessary massages, localized injuries and in case of any emergency. For four days prior to the competition, I treated everything from musculoskeletal injuries, using manual therapy and taping, and led therapeutic exercises. I also addressed the non-musculoskeletal injuries: asthma attacks, foot fungus, blisters, and upset stomachs. The day usually ended at about seven for dinner, followed by team meetings, which often Martha was the trainer of the Artistic Swimming team which included the duo Daniella Ramirez and Anita Alvarez included video analysis of the day’s practice. Day over at about 9pm. The Opening Ceremony took place on July 26, when I walked with all the athletes into the National Stadium in Lima. Truly an honor! Throughout two days of competition, the National Team competed in Team Technical, and Free events and the Duet also in Technical, and Free events. The 8-member team would be one of twelve hoping to obtain podium places. The Gold Medal team would automatically earn a spot at the 2020 Tokyo Olympics. Show time! For four minutes, athletes were judged on coordination with the music, costume, make-up, and photo Susanne Friedrich athleticism. As in gymnastics and ice-skating, the team technical event consists of required movements done to the coach’s choice of music. The Free event is done to music chosen and choreographed by the coach. The USA Team performed beautifully, and elegantly. Both the duet and team scored enough points to win the bronze medal, behind Canada and Mexico in each time. After a long restful summer, practice sessions in Moraga are already in full swing. The trials for Tokyo will be in March 2020.

Born in Brooklyn in 1948, Barry moved to California at the age of 22 after completing an MBA at Columbia University. He settled initially in San Francisco where he worked in the banking industry for a few years before buying a house in San Anselmo and leaving the corporate world behind for good. Barry describes how in 1973 he discovered a passion for running, which set him on the path to his future work as a race announcer and author. He discusses the many books he has written, beginning with Best Running Trails of the San Francisco Bay Area (1978), his seminal Dipsea: the Greatest Race (1993), and the wonderful works of local history, including Mill Valley: the Early Years (1996), Marin: a History (2006), and To Save a Mountain: A 100-Year Battle for Mount Tamalpais (2012) that have established him as the great chronicler of the life, times, and personalities of Marin. Throughout this oral history Barry expresses his love of nature, devotion to preservation, and his passion for running along with the intimate joys provided by friendship and family.

On Saturday, August 21, 2021 the PAUSATF Cross Country Grand Prix resumes with the 20th Annual UC Santa Cruz XC Challenge . I have attached a current listing of Tamalpa Runners who have their 2021 USATF Cards and can score for a Tamalpa Team in a PAUSATF Race. This listing now shows 79 Tamalpa Runners who currently have their 2021 USATF Cards. If you plan to run PAUSATF Races in 2021 and want to score for your Tamalpa Team, please go to the USATF Website, https://www.usatf.org/, and signup for or renew your USATF Card. When you sign up for your card be sure to list Tamalpa, Club #100, as your Running Club.
