Was hoping to see Texas here. I'm a longtime track nerd who covered T&F for years -- though not for the past several -- and would love to pick up some freelance gigs for area meets.

They need your help, desperately.

Did some work for MileSplit way back when, directly for the founder (and was a subscriber for a long time). And Brandon's an old timer who started the Virginia site in the early 00s. I know FloSports and private equity are heavily involved now, so can't speak for current conditions, but this is a big name in track and field media.

Idaho/eastern Wash. area....not for less than $40-$60 depending on the story or stories.....I set the pay but am very reasonable. Track season almost over so my timing sucks. But I did contact you. Texas, Cali, etc., don't always need the extra attention. Idaho isn't the most undercovered state in the USA, not the most 'overcovered'. Thanks though!
