State Masters Track & Field Records Updated

Who is Minnesota's best-ever 50-54-year-old male shot putter?

Who holds the most Minnesota master age-group high jump records?

If questions like those have caused you to lose sleep at night, restful knowledge is now at hand! USA Track and Field - Minnesota, you see, recently published a comprehensive and updated listing of the state's masters track and field records.

The records were originally compiled by John Haugo (the correct answer to question #1) nearly 20 years ago. USATF-Minnesota Master Track and Field Chair Tom Langenfeld (answer to question #2) spearheaded the recent effort to update the records, which was competed in late last year.

In addition to the update of the all-time best marks for Minnesota masters, the effort also updated meet records from the USATF - Minnesota State Championships as well as the Mid-America Master Regional Championships.

You can find links to all records HERE, on the USATF-Minnesota web-site.
