On 2/16/08, in San Diego, California, USATF-LI was well represented at The 8k National Master's Cross Country Championships by Joe Cordero and Kathy Martin.  Joe, three weeks shy of his 70th birthday, competed in the 65-69 age group and recorded a 2nd place finish in 37:07.  Kathy, the 2007 USATF Harrier of the year, continued her winning ways and took another step toward winning the title again in 2008.  Kathy won the 55-59 age group with an outstanding 32:07.  Her performance was the best age-graded among the women at
92.60%, earning her the overall title.  This is a repeat performance of her run at The National Club 6k Cross Country Championship in Westchester, Ohio in 12/07.  She is 2/3 the way to the Harrier Title again.  The next race will be in Greensboro, North Carolina, 10/12/08.

Kathy and Joe along with USATF-LI Senior LDR runner of the year, Betty Horstmann, are on their way to Clermont, France to compete in the World Master's Indoor Championships. These Championships also include an 8k cross country race and a half marathon. USATF-LI will be well represented by these outstanding Master's athletes, and we wish them good luck.
