Daniel’s life under two National Flags

Daniel, when he attended his first outdoor track meet in Pittsburgh, Pa. three years ago at age 5.

Stephanie Tulloch and Coach Lofton of the St. Luke Spirit Track Club, finished negotiating the terms of Daniel’s transfer from Unattached to a member of the St. Luke’s Spirit Club. The agreement is very simple. 

Stephanie and I will train Daniel in the Harrisburg area using St. Luke’s Spirit training documentation. Daniel will run in the USATF indoor/outdoor meets, UAGTCA meets, and USATF Cross Country meets under the St. Luke’s Spirit Track Club. All International Track Meets will be run under St. Luke’s Spirit.

Stephanie and Damine will have Daniel run the Harrisburg/York/Lebanon/Lancaster area local 5k meets under the Jamaican Flag.

 

Daniel will run his first international meet July 6-7; Flying Angels International Classic in North York, Ontario, Canada. At this time, I do not know if he will be running the 1500 Meters, 800 Meters, and Long Jump.   



Daniel may be running for the club as early as May 11th - 8:30AM at Lower Merion HS - SDL MEET #2 in the Philadelphia Area.

For people who want their children to join this track club, I furnished the information in the link below.
