RE: Track clubs in northern CA area?

We have been a dominating force in PA and National Track and Field.

What kind of support are you looking for? As far as I know you can enter any open track meet in the area with or without a club.

Oh please!

What a bunch of horse sh*t!

I live in the bay area and you guys are a joke.

Not to mention the fact that your club member recently sent out a recruitment email to members of other clubs here in the bay area. (i.e. WVTC, Aggies etc.)

That took a lot of nerve and stupidity.

As one friend of mind said to me after he got the email, "Fleet Feet must be pretty desparate or really cocky"

You're not even a dominating force in Sacramento.

What did the recruitment email say?

It was an invitation to their membership party (that was on Saturday).

And mentioned all the exciting things that were going to be happening with the team.

Well FF Sacto is getting somewhat desperate as they just lost half of their team to "Golden West Athletics" which is run by former Fleet Feet coach Randy Sturgeon. Lots of drama in Sacramento!

The email was sent out by Mister Altitude tent.

I got the email forwarded to me.

It was good for a laugh.

Can you post that email? Sounds funny--funnier than the name Hypnotoad!! Ha ha! I always think "turd" when I see that!

Wow!

Will they be a PA team?

And where will they train?

So this doesn't turn into a FF bashing thread, here are some teams (that I know of) that support track and field. By support I mean they run some meets, but may or may not have a structured training program for all events.

Adidas Transports (Oakland) <- may have to meet performance requirements

Asics Aggies (Based in SLO, but memebers throughout state)

Brooks Fleet Feet (Sacramento)

River City Rebels (Sacramento)

West Valley Track Club (SF)

Again this is just a small sample. Check out

for a more complete list of clubs in Norcal.

I think this is the beginning of the end for your team Foo girl.

All that orange is going to fade away.

Thanks for the update.

Where does Golden West practice?

I'm looking for a club that has track/field runners not just road and distance, puts track meets on their schedules, has a coach with some track/field background, and doesn't treat track like an ugly red-headed stepchild.

I have read too much about the Fleet Feet team on these boards. They might have some good people but their reputation as a whole doesn't seem to be the best.

Thanks to another poster for the info about the pacific assocation website.

But they have girls with beautiful tata's. (store bought)

Was that a Foo girl in that bathtub?

Nice!

You just accidently outted yourself "Snake".

One more thing... "they" you used to pretend to be on Fleet Feet and now you aren't?
