Mecklenborg, 68, of Lansdale, PA. Born August 8, 1951 in Philadelphia, he was the son of the late Robert and Helen (Gallagher) Mecklenborg. Kyle was employed with Giant Food Stores for many years. Kyle was an avid and accomplished long distance runner and marathoner in his early adulthood. Even after health issues limited his participation, he was a tireless organizer, promoter and visionary of all aspects of running, throwing and jumping. He was a past vice-president of the Greater Philadelphia Track Club. He was the founder and race director of GPTC's signature event the Runners' Pentathlon for several years. He was an official at the Penn Relays, and for the past eight years was Co-Director of the Germantown Academy All-Comers Summer track meets. Kyle served on various committees of the USATF Mid-Atlantic Association and in 2017 he was honored as Volunteer of the Year. On the day of his death, he was doing what he loved, laying out a course for a future cross country race. NEWS: After 11 years as President of the club, Bill Kampf has stepped down from his duties. Prior to being President of GPTC, Bill was a key member of the club in the days we were known as Philadelphia Athletic Charities TC. We thank Bill for his many years of service. He will continue to participate in future club functions. Vice President Craig Strimel has agreed to fill in as President for the remainder of the term (January 2020). SUMMER CLUB MEETING - SUNDAY, AUG 25, 5PM at FORT WASHINGTON STATE PARK We have not had a summer meeting in years and the purpose of this meeting will be very specific. We will be discussing the feasibility of hosting one or two athletic events in the summer of 2020. The first would be a SPRINT meet in late June 2020 at Germantown Academy. It would be limited to sprint events and sprint relays. The other event would be a Cross Country race in August 2020 at Fort Washington State Park. For those interested, there will be an inspection of the proposed course at 4PM before the Meeting. The discussion will start at 5pm after course inspection. If the course passes muster, we will discuss whether we can field the volunteers and organizers needed to make these events happen. 8/24/2019: Belmont Plateau Hall of Fame 5K X-C – Mid-Atlantic Masters XC Championship – Belmont Plateau GPTC men defend masters title in close finish, place 2nd in overall team race.
