THE GOLF IS OPTIONAL, THE MIRTH IS REQUIRED! The only blog detailing PSU Track and Field, (not always great!) Golf, Physics topics and great videos at the same time! An eclectic mish-mash (mess) of just about everything imaginable. Penn State Track and Field Alumni Golfers have honored PSU Track/XC, Coach Harry Groves and abused golf courses throughout Happy Valley since 2002. Help spread the word!

A Mile For Coach
The Alumni are back at it again, with many running a mile time trial to honor Coach Groves this time araound. The best time I have heard is from Ken Cooper with 4:51. That also keeps his streak of years running under 5:00 alive, well into the 30s... Let us know.
Here's Greg Fredericks effort, filmed by Anne.
And here's the official Lego version of Greg running the 1980 Olympic Trials 10K, where he placed 2nd to Craig Virgin and ahead of Alberto Salazar. (For the record, the 1980 one was the only one he didn't wear the PSU Singlet. In 1972 he was running for PSU and in 1984 he ran his last competitive race in a PSU Singlet. (Do I have those facts correct for Larry, Greg?)
