Lots has been going on this week in our sport. I thought it might make sense to give you all of the releases that USATF communications has put out since the beginning of the convention. Big news, is BP sponsorship and logo clarifcation. Some very good comments, on the logo situation at the AAC meeting.
I was called paternalistic earlier today. Sorry if that is how some see it. I believe that differences in perspective, are for the most part, helpful. It allows us to learn and see how to look at a situation from other view.
Off to the ASBA Technical meeting for three days. Then, it is off to the Running Event. Did enjoy the Nike NXN today, was a tremendous event. Very glad I went.
