Ken Goe/Oregonian: Vin Lananna “taken aback” by the USATF board’s move

LetsRun: Trying to make sense of USATF’s action

the morning shakeout nails it: This latest move (the Lananna putsch) is evidence of USATF’s incompetency, insecurity, and arrogance, and further confirms how out of touch the board members are with the organization’s membership and the myriad problems plaguing the sport in this country.

How fasting rewired my brain. What excesses in our lives need to be eliminated (OK, moderated)? I mean, besides running.

Ken Goe writes: If there are legitimate reasons for Lananna’s removal, the USATF board should say so and act in a transparent manner. In the meantime, this looks less like good governance, and more like dirty politics. …More.
