Masters Athletes

USATF's Masters Program offer competitive and participation opportunities in track & field, long distance running, and race walking. The mission of The Missouri Valley Association Masters Committee is to establish and conduct masters age-group programs. Competitions generally take place in 5-year age divisions. Age divisions begin at age 30 for track & field and race walking, and at age 40 for long distance running.

The USATF Masters Indoor Championships were contested this past weekend in Albuquerque, New Mexico. Missouri Valley Association Athlete Alan Poisner took the gold in the 3000 meter race walk (75-79) age division.
