All we can do at this stage is hope for the best. The NO campaign has been well run and has gained support from almost the entire world wide racewalking community. Let's not lose sight of what we want. • Keep the current 20km / 50km as the international racewalking distances until after the 2024 Olympics. • Use this extended timeframe to properly test the new shoe insert technology. • Work to enhance the current 20km / 50km events to make them more attractive to the general viewing public. • Visit this issue (if it still exists) again in 2024 once the shoe insert technology has been deemed to work (or not!) A few final bits and pieces from the last few days of the ongoing campaign. First, we have been getting some publicity from a few major news outlets.

But Matsunaga was race walking even faster and had closed the gap to two seconds, while China’s Zelin Cai decided to protectively cover the two men in front of him and had pushed hard to remove himself from the pack.

  • Updated 2019 Completemedia
    April 15, 2019 Dear Members of the Media, On behalf of the Boston Athletic Association, principal sponsor John Hancock, and all of our sponsors and supporters, we welcome you to the City of Boston and the 123rd running of the Boston Marathon. As the oldest annually contested marathon in the world, the Boston Marathon represents more than a 26.2-mile footrace. The roads from Hopkinton to Boston have served as a beacon for well over a century, bringing those from all backgrounds together to celebrate the pursuit of athletic excellence. From our early beginnings in 1897 through this year’s 123rd running, the Boston Marathon has been an annual tradition that is on full display every April near and far. We hope that all will be able to savor the spirit of the Boston Marathon, regardless whether you are an athlete or volunteer, spectator or member of the media. Race week will surely not disappoint. The race towards Boylston Street will continue to showcase some of the world’s best athletes. Fronting the charge on Marathon Monday will be a quartet of defending champions who persevered through some of the harshest weather conditions in race history twelve months ago. Desiree Linden, the determined and resilient American who snapped a 33-year USA winless streak in the women’s open division, returns with hopes of keeping her crown. Linden has said that last year’s race was the culmination of more than a decade of trying to tame the beast of Boston – a race course that rewards those who are both patient and daring.

  • Outdoor Track and Field DIVISION I
    DIVISION I 103 Outdoor Track and Field DIVISION I 2001 Championships OUTDOOR TRACK Highlights Volunteers Are Victorious: Tennessee used a strong performance from its sprinters to edge TCU by a point May 30-June 2 at Oregon. The Volunteers earned their third title with 50 points, as the championship-clinching point was scored by the 1,600-meter relay team in the final event of the meet. Knowing it only had to finish the event to secure the point to break the tie with TCU, Tennessee’s unit passed the baton careful- ly and placed eighth. Justin Gatlin played the key role in getting Tennessee into position to win by capturing the 100- and 200-meter dashes. Gatlin was the meet’s only individual double winner. Sean Lambert supported Gatlin’s effort by finishing fourth in the 100. His position was another important factor in Tennessee’s victory, as he placed just ahead of a pair of TCU competitors. Gatlin and Lambert composed half of the Volunteers’ 400-meter relay team that was second. TCU was led by Darvis Patton, who was third in the 200, fourth in the long jump and sixth in the 100. He also was a member of the Horned Frogs’ victorious 400-meter relay team. TEAM STANDINGS 1. Tennessee ..................... 50 Colorado St. ................. 10 Missouri........................ 4 2.

  • 3 Minute Barrier Broken; Jamaica 4 X 400 M History Made on August 13
    3 Minute Barrier Broken; Jamaica 4 x 400 m History Made On August 13, 1995, Jamaica broke through the barrier that divides 4x400 teams and began a new era. Michael McDonald, Davian Clarke, Dennis Blake and Danny McFarlane clocked a national record 2:58.29 in the heats at the World Championships in Goteborg, Sweden with an effort that remains a landmark. Now a coach at the University of Texas El Paso, Clarke recalled on August 10, "we knew we could run sub 3. That was never a doubt, and when we knew that once we put Gregory (Haughton)in the final, we thought we could win the gold." McDonald, World Junior Champion the year before, led off in 45.2 seconds with the 19 year-old Clarke, Blake and McFarlane following with legs timed in 43.7, 44.80 and 44.60. Jamaica was leading near the end until McFarlane eased off to save energy for the final. The old mark – 3:00.01 - had been decimated. The line-up set a template for Jamaica for years to come. "I think McDonald did a great job running that first leg. He was confident, he was aggressive which is what we always put him on first leg because he was the most aggressive of us all over the first 300 so we thought he would make a good starter", Davian outlined. His own outstanding leg came after some concern. Clarke was a rookie in his first senior international and Jamaica had suffered a DQ at the 1992 Olympics on the second leg."But then the team rallied round and said, coach, don't worry, this guy has been running 4x4s in the US and I ran for KC and Jamaica for years.

  • NBNI Meet Program
    Welcome We welcome all the outstanding participants to the 2018 New Balance Nationals Indoor Championships. And we wish a special welcome to all parents, coaches, and friends – all of whose support is invaluable. Our organization, the National Scholastic Athletics Foundation, does more than present national-caliber track and field and cross country events. We also actively support clinics and other meets with substantial financial commitments. Over the years, NSAF has grown from helping a few athletes to one that annually enables over 10,000 athletes to participate in various meets and activities. This is the 35th edition of the event, which has had various names since its inception in 1984. We are again happy to have New Balance as our title sponsor. New Balance is a wonderful part- ner – we have been together for eight years, and we expect to be together for many more years to come. We mourn the loss of Dr. Norbert Sander, who passed unexpectedly a few days after last year’s meet. Dr. Sander was the driving force in making The Armory what it is today. He is sorely missed. We appreciate The Armory’s new leadership, led by Rita Finkel and Jonathan Schindel, with whom we have a great relationship. We trust that everyone present these three days will have memorable experiences, and we wish everyone great success! Sincerely, Jim Spier Meet Director Congratulations on earning a spot at New Balance Nationals Indoor 2018! Your determination, work ethic, and incredible talent qualified you for this very special world class indoor track & field meet. Like many Olympians before you, your capability created the opportunity to compete at an elite level and enjoy this one of a kind experience.
