450,000 New Athlete Posters on the way!

A special treat for track and field geeks are athlete posters. TFN News does them every issue, and I published a series in American Athletics and American Track & Field over the past sixteen years. American Track & Field did a nice one with Brian Sell, courtesy of Brooks this past Winter, and now, ASICS has joined Shooting Star Media, Inc. to put out a great poster, with Deena Kastor on one side and Ryan Hall on the other!
