The following men have been nominated for the 2006 Michelob ULTRA GeezerJock of the Year Award in the Men 40-49 category:

Anselm LeBourne
Track & Field/Maplewood, N.J.

LeBourne

LeBourne, 46, set a pending age group record in the 800 meters, running the race in 1:55.13. Perhaps more remarkably, LeBourne set the record in a race he won even though he was running against 19- and 20-year-olds. At the WMA World Masters Track and Field Championships, held in San Sebastian, Spain, in 2005, LeBourne won individual gold medals in the M45 800 meters and M45 1,500 meters. He also anchored the U.S. gold medalwinning relay team in the 4x400 meters.

Greg Foster
Track & Field/Lumberton, N.J.

Foster

Foster, who was nursing a groin injury, won the triple jump at the 2006 World Masters Athletics indoor championships, which were held in March in Linz, Austria. He won with a distance of 46 feet, 4 inches (14.12 meters). Foster also won long jump and triple jump titles at the World Masters Games in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada in July 2005.

Track & Field/Chapel Hill, N.C.

Hinton

A former All-American at the University of Virgina in the 1,500 meters, Hinton, 44, won the Masters Mile at the Drake Relays in 4:23.85. It was his second straight win in the race and third in the last four years. He also won the mile at the USA Track and Field National Indoor Championships in March with a time of 4:16.23 in the M40 bracket. He also finished second in the 800 meters with a time of 1:56:36, 0.19 seconds behind winner Joseph Carnegie.
