So, How big is the vaulting field going to be at the Master's Indoor Championships in Boston? I'll be in the 55 - 59 age group jumping Saturday morning. Later.Mike

Mike,
I did Reno--3d place in my group. Had a great time socializing
and watching some spectacular vaulting.
Yes, I have Boston on my schedule. If the legs continue to
be healthy I may again try the long jump as well.
Plan to see you there.

I'm hoping to get there this year, and finally get to meet the gang. It depends on how I do in some of the earlier meets. I'm finally recovered from all the injuries in my first season (hernia, achilles, calf, etc.), but not quite where I want to be yet.

I'm not keen on traveling with poles - is there a way to ship poles to the site?

Heyyyyyyyy Terry. You can ask others what size you need and that may help you. I know we're bringing a couple of poles for Souleman. If you want to ship you can do so through BAX (Burlington Air Express). They've got some quirky post 9/11 rules but they will work with you and it's only slightly more expensive than taking it on a plane. I’m sure a lot of people will do that for Maine. Don’t forget – I’ve been assured we’ll have access to some poles for rent in Maine from local athletes/schools.

As far a being “readyâ€Â
