RE: t-and-f: Howard and Clark

Back in the 1980's, the suspension for stimulents was the same as for steroids. I think in the early 1990's, a distinction between the two categories was written into the rules. Steroid use was subject to a two-year penalty on a first offense and life on a second offense.(The two year penalty

Netters: Thanks to those who answered my earlier post on this unfortunate situation. I have to disagree that there is any relation between taking something for a cold and for a serious leg inuury. The cold sufferer is seeking immediate, if temporary relief and, at least in that

Hi All, A break from our pseudoephedrine habit... Not much talk about last weekend's terrific SEC. The men's 800 particularly stood out. While South Carolina's Otukile Lekote (Botswana)won in 1:45.36 (also the early world leader at 1:44.76), not far behind was Florida freshman Moise Joseph

Re: t-and-f: HS all times list question

Can't help you on your specific question, but the June HS-only invitationals are often after graduation for many students. If the rule is that a runner is no longer in high school after graduation, that would decimate those invitationals! I know of one case (dating from 1959) where a runner broke
