In the middle of November, I received the following postcard from our roving
athletics troubadour, Bob Ramsak:
Olympic shot put champion Tomasz Majewski with Fernando Botero’s ‘Adam’, Casino Gardens, Monte Carlo, Monaco.
Bob Ramsak has been, for five or six years now, your conduit to global athletics for our publications in North America. Bob, when he is not traveling, lives in Slovenia, and it is obvious that he loves our sport, as his site Trackprofile.com attests.
Bob spends most of his time covering events and athletes for the IAAF website and publications. We are grateful for his support and his sense of humor on the road. We have had some fun as we take a few minutes to breathe at the various events.
Bob is an example of the people involved in our sport who work very hard to give you insights into our sport….Thanks Bob!

Of RunBlogRun, his daily pilgrimage with the sport, Larry says: "I have to admit, I love traveling to far away meets, writing about the sport I love, and the athletes I respect, for my readers at runblogrun.com, the most of anything I have ever done, except, maybe running itself." Also does some updates for BBC Sports at key events, which he truly enjoys.
Theme song: Greg Allman, " I'm no Angel."
