USATF Masters Long Distance Running Phidippides Program
USATF's Phidippides Program continues to reward Masters athletes of all abilities for their participation in organized road races. Runners accumulate points during the year for each race they complete. Once their accumulated points achieve the standard they are seeking to achieve, they submit their application to USATF. In the past over 700 masters runners each year have earned awards. As of the end of May, 57 runners have already submitted their applications for a 2019 Award. Why not you? There is still plenty of time to run races, earn points, and apply for the Award. For more details on the program, and how to apply, please consult: http://www.usatf.org/Resources-for---/Masters/LDR/Phidippides-Award.aspx

World Masters Athletics Championships
2020 July 20- August 1 WMA Outdoor Championships
Toronto, Ontario, Canada
In addition to distance events on the track, there are Non-
Stadia Events: Cross Country, and 10 Km and Half
Marathon Road events.
2021 April 6 -12 WMA Indoor Championships
Edmonton, Alberta, Canada
In addition to distance events on the track, there are Non-
Stadia Events: Cross Country, and 10 Km and Half
Marathon Road events.
As an incentive for participation in Toronto 2020, the
Masters LDR Executive Committee has determined that
competitors in any of the three non-stadia events,
the XC, the 10 Km, or the Half Marathon can earn
2020 Individual Masters Grand Prix points. An
individual who runs more than one non-stadia event
may still only earn points from one event, presumably
their best finish.
