Filmed on 1/9/08 - Eugene, Oregon - Vin Lananna, as surprised as any of us, expresses his disappointment at the news that Craig Masback is moving on from USATF after the Tracktown meeting on January 9th, 2008. Lananna enjoyed a close relationship with his long time friend as the evolution of Eugene's involvement with the USATF blossomed and reminds us of a very good point: that Masback comes from a background in law, and that perhaps the new position at Nike may suit him quite well.
