Club West

[Chicago]

I've seen photos of Jim Ryun from 1972 wearing a Club West vest. I'm wondering if anyone has any information about the organization, such as other athletes who ran for the club, coaches, where it was based, etc. Thank you!

just off the top of my head, I believe it was Santa Barbara based

I think you are correct, gh. Ryun lived in Eugene, but moved because of his allergies from the pollen.

Confirmed as Santa Barbara, with Bill Toomey as the moving force. Other runners in attendance as of early '72 included Jere Van Dyk, Mark Winzenried, Tarry Harrison, Jeromee Liebenberg
