Jack is a 17-year veteran with the USCAA. He has competed with the Qwest team during that time primarily in the road races, and the President’s relay. He has also competed in the Masters, Seniors, and Executive relays. For the past two years jack has served on the USCAA Board of Directors, and has worked hard this year as head of the Nationals Implementation Committee for our Renton Championship Competition.
He began his running “career” in 1980 at age 39 and is most proud of his running accomplishments over the years at USCAA Nationals Championships. They include medals in his primary events, mentioned above, with gold on several occasions in the President’s relay.
He has been an advocate and sponsor of the Qwest team from its inception helping to insure internal acceptance of the team’s goals through promoting financial and other leadership support. He has tried to be a role model for employees by demonstrating a balance of physical fitness and corporate excellence. Jack misses this aspect of his involvement with the team most since his retirement.
Jack is also proud oft have been the founder of Ten Qwest the corporation’s program for Olympic caliber athletes. This program started in 1989 is designed to provide track and field athletes with real career opportunities. The program is designed to permit a work schedule allowing the time and flexibility required to train for the Olympic team. Presently there are seven athletes in the program. They are highlighted in the advertisement on the inside front cover of your event program. Jack will be happy to talk more with anyone interested in this program.
In retirement jack continues with his interest in USCAA and in the normal retirement “stuff”, travel with his wife, Nancy, activities with children, grand children, running, etc.
