Get ‘Em Before They’re GONE! Dear Throws Enthusiast, Please allow me to take a moment of your time to introduce you to the Long & Strong (L&S). Since its inception in 1998, L&S has grown to 52 pages and is mailed in an envelope to protect your valuable reading material. Year-by-year, issue-by-issue, I strive to improve the final product. Visit www.longandstrong.com to get a pdf version of a sample issue. L&S continues to be the only publication in the world dedicated to the throwing events in track and field. L&S is about more than technique and training. L&S focuses on the personal side as elite athletes and coaches give insight on the keys to success and the personalities behind their achievements. L&S provides throws coverage and photos from major competi- tions that you won’t find anywhere else. L&S touches on the issues that affect the throws community. L&S interviews with top name throwers such as Christian Cantwell, Stephanie Brown-Trafton, A.G. Kruger and Kara Patterson as well as with legends such as Al Oerter, Kate Schmidt and Michael Carter are invaluable. Whether you are a coach, athlete, official, or a high school, Open or Masters competitor, it is crucial you never stop learning!
