Just to clarify (and Bob may be able to clarify my clarification) - USATF

meetings, sanctioned events, teams, etc. I am not sure how this affects
IAAF competitions. I know there are a variety of things in IAAF rules about

I have largely kept silent on this issue but this release from Francis is a
