******************** David Halberstam, 1934-2007 ************************

__/ MICHIGAN RUNNER TV: GORD DICKSON AND THE HISTORY OF CANADIAN ATHLETICS AND ROAD RACING EXHIBIT - In March 2005, we attended a terrific exhibit behing held in downtown Hamilton, Ontario in conjunction with the Around the Bay 30K Road Race. At the time, Gord Dickson, five-time winner of "The Bay" race, agreed to narrate the "History of Canadian Athletics and Road Racing Exhibit." We had significant technical issues with the video, but our video editor, Catherine Jones, worked her magic and we are now, finally, able to bring you Gord Dickson's wonderful "History of Canadian Athletics and Road Racing Exhibit." Scroll to the bottom: http://michiganrunner.tv/ 2007aroundthebay/

__/ INAUGURAL BOYNE 2 BOYNE MARATHON SET FOR SEPTEMBER 30 - Boyne USA Resorts and 3 Disciplines Racing have partnered up to bring this unique exciting event to life. They have developed a beautiful course from Boyne Highlands resort to Boyne Mountain resort. The half marathon will start at Walloon Lake and also end at Boyne Mountain.

Basic details are now up at their website http://www.boyne.com/ EventsCalendar/Events/2007/September/ Boyne_2_Boyne_Marathon.html

This is an event designed for the entire family, as Boyne Mountain has developed a weekend lodging packages starting at $118* per night, per person! For reservations, please call 800.GO.BOYNE or visit www.Boyne.com. Please mention promotional code MARA upon reservations.

Registration will be taken care of by 3 Disciplines http:// www.3disciplines.com.

__/ THE JOGGER IS BACK - The Jogger, a character developed by our son Mike McCafferty, has reappeared on the Internet at http:// medialab.ifc.com/film_detail.jsp?film_id=334. The show was a sleeper hit on L.A.'s Channel 101 and then taken off the web when a media marketing firm picked up the concept and the rights for a possible media campaign.

After taking the video off the Internet, the company decided to put it back on for additional exposure. Mike will be appearing in the upcoming sequel to National Treasure," National Treasure: The Book of Secrets", that will be released this holiday season.

__/ NEAL SHINE - Never heard of him? Spend a few minutes reading some of the things that were said about the former Editor and Publisher of the Detroit Free Press, after he passed away earlier this month. http://www.freep.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20070403/NEWS08/ 70403032/1010/NEWS08

As we begin the 30th Anniversary year of the Detroit Free Press/Flagstar Marathon, we need to remember that Neal Shine was one of the driving forces in bringing this event about. Always a community supporter, he felt that an event that would feature the community of Detroit would be a natural. Under his leadership and the resources of the Detroit Free Press and later, Flagstar Bank, the marathon has grown in stature and become a major marathon in this country.

__/ PARA OLYMPIC SWIMMER, JESSICA LONG, WINS SULLIVAN AWARD - The AAU Sullivan Award is given each year to the USA's top amateur athlete. Previous winners include Joan Benoit Samuelson, Frank Shorter, Jim Ryun, Wilma Rudolph, Bill Bradley, Michelle Kwan, Peyton Manning, Mark Spitz and Rulon Gardner.

The 77th winner, Jessica Long, age 15, has 18 world record-breaking performances and holds the record in 12 events for paralympic swimming. Long, whose legs were amputated below the knee, learned to swim in her grandparents' pool and has won at least three medals in every Paralympic Games since 2004. In 2006, Long won nine gold medals and set five world records at the International Paralympic Committee (IPC) Swimming World Championships in Durban, South Africa. http://www.aausullivan.org/

__/ VIRGINIA TECH WOMEN WIN FIRST-EVER ACC OUTDOOR T&F CHAMPIONSHIP Dave Cianelli, Virginia Tech Women's Head Coach "It was an awesome team performance. I knew that we could do this, pull together as a group and perform. We did. Our team hung together and were tight-knit. We were able to come out and perform to our ability under difficult circumstances. That shows the character of this team."

__/ RON WARHURST WILL COACH TEAM USA FOR 2007 IAAF WORLD CHAMPS - "INDIANAPOLIS - University of Miami head women's coach Amy Deem and Texas A&M head coach Pat Henry have been named to serve as the women's and men's head coaches, respectively, for Team USA's track and field squads for the 2007 IAAF World Outdoor Track & Field Championships in Osaka, Japan, USA Track & Field announced Thursday.
