Bob,
COOL!
While you are down sizing cross country, why not do the same to track.
Only 1 weight event. Heck they all spin now, so as long as they spin and have a weight
they must be the same. Let's not water down the events.
Same with the horizontal jumps. If you can jump once,you can jump 3 times. I say
compromise -have the duo jump or call it the hop-step. Forget the long jump and the
triple jump.
Running? Forget the 100 and the 400. I'm tired of the talent being stretched to cover
these events. The 200 says it all.
No one knows what to make of the 800- throw it out. The 5000 and the 10,000 are the
same people-chuck 'em. If they can't run the mile, they shouldn't be on the track.
There is more to cross country than a long race on bumpy ground!
