NEWSLETTER 6 DECEMBER 1981 THE PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE

llere we are again even if we have once again run over our ~ublication deadline. We'll have to put on some speed over Christmas and catch up next time. Even though the 1981 World Championships were held right at the begin- ning of the year Veteran Track and Field has been anything but subdued. News from all parts of the World indicate wider and wider participation, building on the sustained interests of the pioneers who are still competing with their original enthusiasm after more than 10 years Veteran activi.ty. Thanks to the efforgs of Helen Pain (USA) in promtfnq a tour to the Republic of China and of Clem Green (N.Z.) for spreadino the gospel in the South Seas, we will, no doubt, see even more new faces in Puerto Rico in 1983.

I spent a few pleasant days with Roberto Santba, the Diwctor of Recreation for San Juan who visited me, full of enthusiasm for the big task at hand. He pledges that everyone who comes to Puerto Rico in 1983 will enjoy it inim?nsely, athletically and as a visitor. There is much to see and do in this island in the sun.

On the subject of the 5th World Veteran Championships we would like to remind you that presentations will be made and decisions reached on the venue not only for the 6th Championships (1985) but also the 7th (1987). This will then leave us in the position of being able to plan 4 years ahead always. Those countries interested in bidding for either of these Championships are asked to contact W.A.V.A. Secretary Owen Flaherty not later than 3 months prior to the 5th Championships so that the necessary time may be allotted to them. We were disappointed with the lack of reaction to letters published in our last Newsletter. Such matters as the inclusion or non inclusion of relays are hotLy debated at each World Championships but that is not enough. We must have sustained interest to achieve the right roads. Please let's hear what you think. Surely not everyone is satisfied with W.A.V.A. as it now is.

Most of you will know that there is an annual Cross Country Match held between Canada and U.S.A. Recently Eddie Johnston visited Toronto from Northern Ireland and asked if we would be willrnlJto open this event to team from other countries. I asked him if he felt there would be sufficient response. He felt there would be. If there could be sufficient support, I am sure we could gain sponsorship for a Veteran International Cross Country event. A two week visit to North America might provide time for a three - event compet- ition for distance runners, a road race, a cross country race and then a relay event. You may feel enthusiastic about this idea, you may feel it should take place somewhere else or aqain, you may feel we alrvady have enough major events. What we have in mind here would be events for elite international teams although additional competitors could take part on a non scoring basis. Let's hear what you think about the idea.

--Front Cover: 68 year old GILBERT0 GONZALEZ-JULIA, President of the Puerto Rico Masters Association will also be President of the 5th World Veteran T & F Championships to be held in San Juan, P.R. Sep. 30th to Oct. 7th (inc). 1983. 1 THE PRESIDENT'S !lESSAGE (con t' d) THE MIND AT WORK - WITH Subscriptions are now due for all readers whose address labels bear SPIKES ON a number "2" in the lower left corner.

He knows that training the body to peak fitness is only the basic step: 'from there on it is ready to serve him as an I have mentioned the recent visit of Eddie Johnston from Northern instrument of the will ; and that is where races are won or lost.

When he came to the first llorld Championship (1975), Eddie was inspired by the performances of the blind competitors, particularly Fritz Here the runner has much in common with the performing musician.

In a later issue I hope to ~t Eddie to write mre about shape he can't ever give up practising any more than a runner can quit training; his endeavours, it is an uplifting thousht that such things happen even in but once his hands will do whatever he asks, then what counts is the quality of a country from which we hear of so much strife and bloodshed. his mind, his musicianship. At that point differences appear. Sheer physical Ed. a vituosity could never transform a Liberace into a Lipatti. That is crudely obvious. Less obviously, it could never transform an Iturbi into a Lipatti. In' closing, I would like to offer my sincere best wishes to each of The true musician is converned not with pleasing an audience but with serving you for the coming holy season and the New Year. Happiness and bod Health a score: he is forever in pursuit of that true and perfect performance which to you all. he can conceive in his inner ear but which always partly eludes his grasp, and he has nothing in common with the box-office celebrity who sticks to a repertoire of three flashy concertos and peddles them twice weekly to mbs of polite ladies who include Grieg in their notion of gracious living along with church socials and afternoon bridge.

The same distinction can be found in track. Few runners attach any value to star status, its power or its glory: in that sense there's almost no running equivalent to the musical peacock whos motive is applause. But there are many runners who only attain their best in a race that is also a public occasion; on the whole, the bigger the occasion, the better the performance - the Olympics really are the top of the heap.

However, the fact can easily be misinterpreted. The role of the crowd is quite unimportant. When Emil Zatopak was dominating the Olympic distance events, in 1948 and 1952, the crowd used to urge him on with rhythmic chants of "Za-to-pek! Za-to-pek, and no doubt some of the custotrers congratulated thelrselves on his success. Actually, he has confessed that he seldom heard the crowd at all, and that on the few occasions when he did he figured something must be wrong because he wasn't concentrating enough.

This puts the finger on it. What counts is what's going on on the track. Exclusively. There is no mystic rapport between runner and public which galvanites a race. What galvanizes it is its own inner life.

Why, then, is it true that nearly all the best performances occur on public occasions? The answer is obvious if the question is asked in reverse order. The public is there because a great performance is likely, because great opponents have been brought together; crowds are a response to great races, not a cause of them. And any serious runner will tell you that the presence of a crowd is superfluous, irrelevant, even at times a nuisance. What matters to him is the quality of the opposition. di-year old Jim Burnett(lA0) set new world over.age.40 mark of 49.36 in the 400-mete run at Naiionai Mas!er Charnoionships. Here he leads Dave Segat '9291 and Bill Knecks in200.meter-~ run. Tom Patsalis, 59, (R), is congratulated by Dave Jackson after setting new world age 55-59 long jump record of 20"h" at TFA Western Regional 2 Masters T&F Championships in Los AnQeles, July 18th.

I THE MIND AT WORK - WITH THE MIND AT WORK - WITH SPIKES ON (cont'd) SPIKES ON (cont'd)

Here again, he has much in common with musicians. What galvanises a that this is impossible and only the toughest mind is able to insist to force performance is its own inner life. And that is usually a product of bringing the body to do it. When the front-runner attempts this tactic his one and together the right players and the right conductor and the right score on the only reassurance is that if it's hard on him, it" even harder on the positional right day. It has little or nothing to do with the hands-across-the-footlights runners who're trying to stay in there. He at least decides when the bursts attitude which actors are so prone to. And in the case of the solo recitalist begin and end; they must respond without choice and without hesitation. a "live" audience should be wholly unnecessary (except as a source of income): his communion is not with listners but with the composer.

At a Club dinner dance some years ago I suggested that it was time The running story of a big, Canadian Master that the Veterans' Athletic Club made its name by setting up something going to San Juan to throw-his-weight-around like 100 x 1 mile track relay record. This idea was enthusiastically in the 1981 PUERTO RICO Master Championships. taken up by Noel Noble and some two or three years later the first attempt was made to run such a relay. Each year in Britain there is a 100 x 1 mile relay and the Club entered Spending 1,100 Canadian dollars to get to the Puerto Rican Masters and circularised members asking them to attend. How little we knew T. & F. Championships (on Sept. 19 and 20, 1981) sure seemed like then of the problems which surrounded such an attempt. We waited a lot of loot ..... so, I calmly sat down and figured out a way of for members to turn up, we ran 57 legs and then retired - rlln out, of cutting the cost in half: - just leave my wife at home!! runners but we learned many lessons. Ihe enthusiastic Noel Noble then set about organising the next years I had read big, inviting, full page advertisements in the NM News- entry and taking the advice of the originator, Mike McDowell, moved letter and together with the very persuasive tongue of Meet Director, the venue to Crystal Palace where er Clubs were running. Gilberto ~onzslez-~ulis,I decided to work a little harder and raise This enabled the Veterans' y of the members run the necessary $550.00 Canadian or approx. $450 U.S. (for the round- first claim for other Clubs during the course trip flite via "Eastern") of the day if needed. . The organisation was better but not desperately streamlined and in I kissed Lisa good-bye at 6 A.M. on Sept. 17th; left Toronto Airport a fantastic effort, we actually turned Out exactly one hundred people at 8 A.M. and arrived in Miami 2 hours and 50 minutes later. After with infact not a single reserve by the end of the day. the stop-over and several time delays in Miami we finally took off The people we turned out ranged in age up to 76/78 years old and and landed in San Juan, Puerto Rico 2 hours and 20 minutes later. therefore the original record of just under 10 hours was really the opener to get this event off the ground. It said something that our It was not the heat that struck me like a 16 lb. shot but the heavy, slowest mile on that day was over ten minutes. heavy, humidity. Temporarily, I forgot about the overly oppresive ~otunexpectedly the challenge was taken up andin this case the weather conditions when I suddenly spied the greatest Master of them San Diego Track Club Pulverised our effort with a 9 hr 15 minperformance. all, Gilberto, jumping up and down and grinning ear to ear.

They were both very helpful sixty names and then the flood gates opened and we finished with and of course, it was very easy for them to give me a warm welcome under those tropical conditions... . I felt like reciprocating, so.... 160 odd members wanting to run.

Can we do it again ? We are not sure but we are getting an awful lots of new Vets in each year now. Can somebody beat us - well let them try. Or can some other Clubs in other countries arrange to run on the same 12 day and see if we can get a real challenge going. Incidentally, both Mr. and Mrs. Gonzalez-Julia worked out later that afternoon; Juanita tuning up for her 100 meter championship run and her husband running a smart 300 m. distance in 49.9 seconds. The next and final day brought some fine results. I won my shot with a 12.65 heave and got badly beaten by Gord. Nordgren's 42.16 spear After dinner at the "Burger KING" (where else) I spent a so-so nite throw. Little Luis Luna from Columbia, 42 years of age, ran his 800 in the "Silencio Hotel" (during which 1/3 of the air conditioner fell in 2~06,the 5,000 in 16:56 and the 3,000 metre steeplechase in 10:30. out of the wall, there was no chair, no electrical outlet for my Fellow countrywoman, 57 year old Mary Garcia de Lires covered her 200 shaver and the 25 watt bulb in the table lamp needed replacing).
