If you can’t make the Big Kahuna of masters miles (the Hartshorne Memorial races at Cornell University), here’s a spring fling in San Diego: “The San Diego State University Aztec Masters Mile is a separately sanctioned event … during SDSU’s 37th Annual Aztec Track and Field Invitational. … The women’s and men’s Masters Mile with be the first two events contested in the Friday, March 27, 2015 Distance Carnival. Consistent with USATF Rule 320, the Masters Mile will be open to men and women competitors 30 and older on the day of the race. The men and women sections will be seeded by time if there are more competitors that a single section can accommodate. Results will be tabulated by the standard five-year age groups. Masters Mile entries can be submitted via DirectAthletics.” Thanks to meet director Rick Reaser for the heads up!
ah – both are on my bucket list of races I want to run – maybe next year – new age group and time to get back into racing shape- or what passes for racing shape for me now.

Did this last year, hoping to do the same in 2015. There were only 3 competitors last year we could use some company. Great track and venue…highly recommended!

I’m hoping to come down to run this and then the Carlsbad 5000 two days later. That’s always been on my bucket list.
Ken has followed track as an athlete, writer and web-master since the late 1960s, and saw most sessions of track and field at the 1984 Los Angeles and 1996 Atlanta Olympics. He also attended the 1988, 1992, 2000, 2004, 2008 and 2012 Trials, the last three as a blogger and Patch correspondent. [More...]
