    >30y, and I think he always won.

    not to mention the one-step dunk of a shot (at 300-some pounds).

      I remember hearing about him at a putting photo shoot and they didn't want to mess up the field, so he stood out about 60' and caught thrower's shots.

        Thread got hijacked, I helped. So....

        As noted above, staying on time can go a long way toward making even a long meet tolerable. I've never been involved in coaching/meet management so have no clue as to what the biggest obstacles are to sticking to a meet timetable, but have seen it done both ways, good and bad. I know it's xc and not track, but Harrison High (Colorado Springs) hosted last year's Colorado high school state meets (and are doing so again tomorrow) and started six races (5A, 4A, and 3A boys and girls) at thirty minute intervals on the same course and stayed on time. Fans would barely regroup from watching one and comparing notes when the next group would be on the line ready to go. It was well run. The Penn Relays has about a million athletes in 100,000 heats--does Penn stay on time? If so, how?
