Sri Chinmoy Master's Games, Victory Field, Forest Park, Queens, NY

By Rupantar LaRusso author bio »
19 February

About the author:

Rupantar has been the race director of the Sri Chinmoy Marathon Team since 1985, having been asked by Sri Chinmoy to serve in that capacity. As well as working on the big races the US Marathon Team organise each year - the 3100 Mile Race and the Six and 10 Day Race - he also spends a considerable amount of time archiving the Marathon Team's 40 year history on this website.

"71 Year Old Wins Sri Chinmoy Master's Games." Press Release. July 22, 1990. Retrieved 2013-02-18. Archive copy at Sri Chinmoy Marathon Team office, Queens, New York.

"George Carbonell, 71, of Bayside, New York, won the men's division of the Sri Chinmoy Masters Track & Field Games, held at Victory Field in Forest Park, NY on July 14. It was the sixth annual holding of the games, which are for men and women ages 50 and over. Carbonell, a retired accountant with the chest muscles of a body-builder, first entered the Games last year, walking away with a fistful of gold medals. This year he walked away with the overall trophy, given to that athlete with highest point count at the end of the day...

A hundred athletes, from gold medalist Senior Olympians to neighborhood grandparents, took part in the day-long athletics games. Cheering support came from a full complement of spouses, children and grandchildren. Women's winner was Srotaswini Klandt...

Testifying to the growing capacity of older athletes, 10 meet records were set over the course of the day. Three of these were won by Sulochana Kallia, a Hungarian now living in Queens, who entered the 60 and over group this year..

This was Oerter's' third appearance at the Games where in 1988 he inaugurated the Sri Chinmoy Peace-Discus-Throw, installed by the Sri Chinmoy Marathon Team in cooperation with the New York City Department of Parks and Recreation."
