BOSTON PREPS FOR INDOOR NATIONALS
Preparations are well underway for the fourth
consecutive USATF National Masters Indoor
Championships to be held in Boston, Mass. The meet
will open on Friday March 24th at 9:30am with the
men's and women's pentathlon and conclude on Sunday
afternoon the 26th with the sections of the 4 x
400m relay. 
The Reggie Lewis Track and Athletic Center,
which has produced more than 100 masters world
indoor records in the past three years, is expected
to see a multitude of alterations of the record
book in 2000 as over 850 competitors are expected
for the event. The meet will be hosted and managed
by the New England Association of USATF, reprising
their role from the highly successful 1998 edition
of the Indoor Nationals.
Competitors will be asked to assist the New
England Association by filling out a survey form
that they will receive at registration. With the
indoor championships remaining in Boston through
2002, the Association hopes to use the information
to make further improvements for future years, as
well as attract additional corporate support. Both
New Balance and M-F Athletics who were on board for
the 1998 event are returning as sponsors for the
2000 meet. Athletes are also encouraged to submit
with their entry form any recent notable
performances or places in national or international
competitions for use by the meet announcer and for
media disbursement.
The year 2000 presents the fifth time that the
Championships are held in New England, the first
time being the inaugural meet in 1981, with
approximately 200 participants. In 1998, the third
year of competition in Boston and organized by the
New England Association of USA Track & Field,
the meet had a record 817 entrants. Meet management
in 1997 and 1999 was by TRACS, Inc., who again are
scheduled to organize the championships in 2001. In
2002 the Championships will be back in Boston, and
meet management at that time will again revert to
USA Track & Field - New England.
