Trackinfo (talk · contribs)
Broad interest, lots of specialties. I'm an American official, administrator and active masters athlete. I've already made many contributions to the Track contents. I'm also an active inclusionist which has already led me on a campaign to rescue hundreds of "Athletics" articles that were potentially in jeopardy.
MATThematical (talk · contribs)
I like statistics and distance running. I also like adding athlete boxes with personal bests to the right hand side of articles. I think it makes them look more aesthetically pleasing. Personal records across the athletes respective events is great information to have in my opinion.
