Ocean Eversley, 53-year-old Vineyard Haven athletics ace — she is national and New England champion in the 60, 200 and 400-meter races and long jump — is training hard for the Penn Relays that will be held on April 28 and 29. Part of the Mass Velocity track club, she’s aiming to break the masters women’s national record in the 4-by-100 and 4-by-400 meter relay in front of up to 60,000 thousand fans.
Ms. Eversley is being coached by the eight-time open 800-meter national champion and Olympian Khadevis Robinson.
She also will be running at the 2011 World Athletic Masters Track and Field Championships being held in Sacramento, Calif., in July, attempting to become a world champion in the individual 200 and 400-meter races and also running in the 4-by-400 meter relay.
She is looking for sponsorship and funding for travel, hotel and entry fee expenses. For details, e-mail oceaneverlsey@aol.com or call 608-606-3535.
