Re: Elite Level Pole Vault, Throws and Track

Well, the most likely source to acquire your $30k from would be a shoe/apparel company. Trying to recall what a company exectutive told me in 2008 during a discussion about sales. At the time, I think field event shoes was approximately, 2.5 % of sales revenue. Therefore, in short..... he'd be exten...

Re: Elite Level Pole Vault, Throws and Track

Bottom line.... If you want funding and you're told you're not good enough. Become good enough. It's easy to fantasize about what you will become if you have more money. Don't ignore what you already have especially if it is talent. My Polish friends move around the world freely. My Cuban friends ar...

Re: Elite Level Pole Vault, Throws and Track

There is no shortage of support for field events down there. I love the choosy- begger thing. It's becomes not good enough when you don't gain entry ? I think we will see some improvement. Our recent successful athletes are turning to coaching. I spoke to Nick Hysong and he's coaching. Toby is coach...

Re: So who is on the World Champs team?

Jeremy had Derek are not going to suddenly combust. Also, I honestly belive through appeal a committe can choose the other A Standard athlete, Brad Walker. He has a strong case as he's a multi medalist. So the next question is what happens if something happens to Derek Miles or Jeremy Scott? You can...

Re: Worst indoor season ever ?

You are extremely fortunate people in Norway. From 2001-2007 and then again last year, you've managed to measure the highest standard of living. We however, have a major catastrophic budget deficit. And you can only imagine our educational system is not as generous as other countries. I found a Stan...
