Golden League, Au revoir, created and photographed by Bob Ramsak
Description: A collection of snow globes depicting various cities with Golden
League athletics meetings.
A few days ago, Bob Ramsak, of TrackProfile.com, and a more than frequent contributor to the various media platforms of IAAF.org, sent this out to a few
of his friends, compadres, stalkers.
E. Garry Hill, Editor of Track & Field News, the bible of the sport, queried, ” Is this what the IAAF means by going global?” Ever observant, I believe that Mr. Hill’s thoughtful and speedy comment shows why he is, and continues to be, editor of Track & Field News.
I for one, will meditate on the snow globes as I journey around my small town in southwestern Wisconsin on a warm Thursday night, in early September, looking for a window to peak into, or a cold beverage to consume.
Sorry readers, long day today, and I am about out of gas, so have a good evening, and enjoy the snow globes!
