Welcome to the USA Track & Field
Road Running Technical Council
Note: In accordance with USATF policy, most of the content which was (at one time) on this RRTC.net website has been ported to the central USATF site at www.usatf.org. However, since the recent update to the USATF website, much of the information previously available on that site is no longer available. The links pointing to that information have been changed back to once again point to locations on the RRTC website. Also note that none of the pages on the USATF site are directly controlled or edited by RRTC.
