Looking at my recent workouts, I doubt I will ever make it to this point, but was wondering about qualifying for the USATF. Correct me if I am wrong, but isn't it similar to the NCAA's where they have automatic times but limit it to 20 or so participants but if there are more than the allowed that beat the A standard, then all those that did it are allowed to race, but if less than the limited participants hit the B standards when only those that hit it will be allowed to compete whether it was 10 or so. I may be way off base, but thought maybe someone on here knows the deal or actually competed there in the past.
Also is it true that they pay for your tripif you hit the A
standards?
