It seems that Frank Mesa co founded the Aztlan Track Club in 1974 and continues to promote the club through his "accomplishments". FM and Jose Zavala (current Atzlan Athletics CEO) are buds. I wouldn't surprise me to learn that Jose Zavala was aware of his course cutting, but now finds their club in an awkward position.

Aztlan Track Club was founded in 1974 in the East Los Angeles area by Carlos Alfaro and Frank Meza. It operated under the Aztlan Athletic Congress. Frank Meza is currently a medical doctor and coaches Cross Country and Track at Loyola High School. Carlos Alfaro retired after 30 years in the teaching profession. Aztlan Track club transitioned into Aztlan Athletics to offer a wider-range of event management services. Jose Zavala and Carlos Alfaro merged into Aztlan Athletics in 2008, which now oversees and manages multiple running events in the Southern California area. Aztlan Athletics has been represented in Cross Country and Track at regional, state and national championships.
Aztlan Athletics began coordinating running events in 1978 and it is known for laying the foundation for competitive trail running (Aztlan Indian Run at Elysian Park- since 1981). Today, Aztlan Athletics offers 6 unique running experiences and provides event management support to our event partners. We offer a "Grab Bag" of resources including food catering, IT and media production, apparel and awards, registration and timing support, course management and consultation.
Our company's foundation began over 30 years ago. We reach out to promising athletes and offer a select few with subsidized support to be able to compete in Cross Country, and Track and Field at the local and national level. One of our most popular events is the Aztlan Indian Run, which is rated among the top running venues in Southern California. We added two additional running events in 2010, and now have plans to bring two more in 2012. We hope to be able to incorporate an "Elite" field of competitors in at least two running events in the near future. The company's current executive team (Jose Zavala, President & Carlos Alfaro, Vice President) has a combined 60 years of experience as direct-service professionals and in the event management/production industry.
