Re: [N.E.W.] National Masters Indoor Championship - and other indo   Message List  
Reply | Forward Message #2136 of 4832 |
Steve,
I checked on the website www.usatfne.org , and there is a typo., listing the
Masters Meet as March 26-28. It still says Fri.-Sun.

I will try to be at MIT this Saturday. Everyone is usually amused that an
old MIT geek can still walk so fast. All you NEW'ers--this walk is for all
comers, not just MIT alumnae.
Tom
