(I'm posting this for Will Freeman)
1972 Olympic champion Frank Shorter will join 2008 Olympic distance coach Dr. Joe Vigil will headline the 2008 National Distance Running Summit Jan .4-5, 2008 in Grinnell, IA.
After a highly-successful Summit in Jan. 2007 that had over 240 coaches from around the nation attend, the 2008 version looks to be even more successful.
Shorter and Vigil will be joined by fellow presenters Scott Simmons (Queens University of Charlotte, NC), Dan Green (The Woodlands HS, TX) and host Will Freeman (Grinnell College).
To access the Summit flyer, go to:
www.grinnell.edu/athletics/mcross
the 2008 Summit button is on the left-side menu
Attendees can now register and pay with a credit card on-line (see flyer for instructions, list of speaker topics, and housing information). Note: we must limit the summit to the first 240 to sign up due to space limitations of the facility. Note that we hit that number in 2007. All attendees must pre-register this year. No walk-ins.
It should be a special event!!
