I'm old enough to remember those guys that were in the Florida Track club in the early '70s. Such a cool singlet with the orange on it. As far as distance runners go those guys were as good as anybody in the country as a group.


In the 80's while in school I worked at athletic attic, which was the running shoe store Jimmy Carnes and Marty Liquori started with used UF running shoes. I believe Carnes started the Florida Track Club.

Yep, Athletic Attic started right there in Gainesville.

Thanks for posting the pic of Shorter in the FTC singlet.

Ought to be a good meet. Looking to see what Valby can do besides wreck everybody else in the race.
