HAPPY~O LIDAYS! the ORWRANKINGS for 1984 the Ohio Racewalker Is Proud to Announce :.Ts Annual World and U.S HI VOWME XXI NUMBER10 COWMBUS1 OHIO DEX:FMBER1984 HAPPY~O LIDAYS! THE ORWRANKINGS FOR 1984 The Ohio Racewalker is proud to announce :.ts annual world and U.S. rankinRS for both men and womenat theprimary distances. As usual, the whole world has been impi.tiently awaiting the momentous announcement of these prestigious rankings. Of course, those honored receive absolutely no reward and may never even hear of their eelection--only a few hep individuals read the ORW,but how much glory is their in race walking anyway. This marks the 14th consecutive year the ORWhas ranked the wor'.d •s top male walkers at 20 and 50 kilometers, the 12th time we have ranked U.S men at the sameutwo distances, and the seventh year for rankin g women, both world and .S, at 5 and 10 kilometers. (Actually, we have not ranked U. s . womenat 5 Kmthis year, because there was just too littl e action, at least repcrted to us, to justify rankings.) The rankings ar e based on the athletes• record over the season and represent a consensus of opinion between your editor and absolutely nobody else -- they are subjective and arbitrary. Criteria used are times, record in major competition, head-to­ head competition, and personal bias. The rankings at each distance are fol.lowed by lists of the top times for the yaar. 1984WOBLn 20 KMRANKINc:3 1. Ernesto Canto, Mexico 5. Ralf Kowalsky, Ger.

  • Record Storici
    RECORD STORICI I primati Mondiali, Europei, Olimpici stabiliti dagli atleti italiani A scorrere le vecchie carte, si rintracciano numerose grandi prestazioni che gli atleti italiani hanno ottenuto nel Secolo XX. Prestazioni delle quali, per la gran parte, si è persa memoria. Quindi, appare opportuno riproporle in quella che potrebbe essere una delle voci di un nostro “ABBECEDARIO” di atletica, un testo di lettura per le prime classi dei dirigenti federali. Il primo record da ricordare, dei più nobili, è quello di Dorando Pietri a Londra 1908: un proto-primato nella Maratona (come avrebbe scritto Bruno Bonomelli …) cancellato alla pari della sua vittoria. Gli ultimi, già molto lontani nel tempo, sono quelli che Maurizio Damilano ha ottenuto sulla pista di Cuneo nell’autunno 1992. Fra mezzo, molti riscontri tecnici di notevole significato temporale e storico. Nelle tabelle che seguono si è tentato un primo elenco – in ordine cronologico – di tutti quei record Mondiali , Europei e Olimpici che hanno fatto la storia dell’atletica italiana, oltre ad una appendice per non tralasciare una serie di risultati che, per vari motivi, non hanno goduto del crisma dell’ufficialità. In chiave storica va ricordato che la federazione italiana è stata fondata a Milano il 21 ottobre 1906 e che la IAAF ha preso corpo a Berlino nell’ agosto 1913 , dopo che il 17 luglio 1912 i rappresentanti di 17 nazioni – riunitisi a Stoccolma durante i Giochi Olimpici (e tra i quali non figurava nessun italiano) – avevano stabilito di costituire una struttura internazionale che regolamentasse norme e primati dell’atletica leggera. Tra i primi atti della IAAF fu proprio la stesura di una prima lista di record mondiali che venne presentata nel 1914.

  • Town Wide Newsletter Fall- Winter 2013
    Issue No. 84 Fall/Winter 2013 Town of Malta Founded 1802 A MESSAGE FROM THE SUPERVISOR Dear Resident: The construction of GlobalFoundries has been transformational for Saratoga County and Malta. In the past 8 years we have seen GlobalFoundries not only build the first semiconductor manufacturing plant, but add to their 229 acre complex a large administrative building and then a Technology Development Center, bringing the total workforce to 2,000. On August 19, the Town Board amended zoning for the Campus to clear the way for even further expansion. See companion article on page 2. This driving force in our economy has brought a “second tier” of businesses - INSIDE THIS ISSUE: high-tech suppliers such as; Tokyo Electron, KLA Tencor, DNSE, Novellus, Applied Malta’s New Businesses Materials, Ovivo Water, Ebara Technologies, Lansing Engineering and Variant Technologies. Round Lake Road Improvement Plans And, there are a number of “third tier” businesses that have emerged. Page 2 contains a list of these businesses. Senior Corner As we jokingly say, Malta “The Center of the Universe” has become the job center for Saratoga County. During this growth period, the Town Board has provided Residents In The News steady leadership to not only support economic development, but to protect our quality of life. We welcome all our new businesses to The Malta Town Family. We welcome your EVENTS: culture of excellence and public service. We encourage you and your employees Malta Community Day to become part of our community in ways best for you, whether as a volunteer for our fire departments, donor at our blood drives or members of our theatre group.

For Jared, it was another fantastic top-eight finish and it was in the lesser of his two Olympic events. With the Olympic 50km event this week, Jared upped the ante even further, taking his second successive Olympic 50km silver medal and recording a 2+ minute PB time of 3:36:53, also breaking the Olympic record into the bargain. What a performance! Walker of the Week! 50KM MEN'S RACEWALK, OLYMPIC GAMES, THE MALL, LONDON, SATURDAY 11 AUGUST 2012 The men's Olympic 50km walk started at 9AM at the Mall in London and I was one of the many spectators who lined the 2km loop to cheer on the contestants. My report on the Men's 50km Race Walk is taken from that of Dave Martin for the IAAF (see http://www.iaaf.org/Mini/OLY12/News/NewsDetail.aspx?id=67421) Sergey Kirdyapkin, the man to be beaten having won the IAAF World Race Walking Cup in Saransk in May, shattered the existing record of 3:37:09 with a decisive victory.
