Nolan Shaheed, a top-ranked Masters runner and athlete, was announced as the ‘Athlete of the
Week’ from USA Track & Field, after breaking his own world record in the M60 800 meter race
this past weekend. An advocate of StemSport™, Shaheed has incorporated Stemtech’s stem
cell nutrition supplements into his daily regimen; apparently, with excellent results.
As noted previously by Frank Condon, a fellow Masters runner and Stemtech Distributor since
2005, "After I started supplementing with the StemSport™ to support my adult stem cell
function, I noticed dramatic improvements in my recovery time during training. I went on to
shatter the 37-year-old U.S. outdoor record in the M65 mile by 10 seconds. I turned Nolan
Shaheed onto Stemtech’s concept of stem cell nutrition and he has also experienced
tremendous benefits with StemSport™. Salih Talib too."
The USATF’s release states:
INDIANAPOLIS (April 27, 2011) - Masters athlete and noted jazz musician Nolan Shaheed has
been named USA Track & Field’s Athlete of the Week after he broke his own world record in the
M60 800 meter race in 2:08.56 Saturday in Los Angeles.
Running at the Tommie “Tiny” Lister Classic, Shaheed lined-up next to collegiate athletes young
enough to be his sons or even grandsons. With 200m to go, announcer Bill Fitzpatrick noted
that Shaheed needed a 33-second closing 200m to set the world record. With the crowd behind
him, Shaheed crossed the line half a second faster than his efforts at the Mt. SAC Relays the
previous week.
“The college kids were wonderful celebrating with me and coming up to shake my hand after the
race,” Shaheed said. “Then I was named the athlete of the meet, and that was really
heartwarming because there were hundreds of great college kids running at this meet, and for
them to decide that mine was the greatest achievement of the meet was very touching for me.”

Shaheed was first introduced to track in high school, but did not compete seriously until his late
20’s. While he once clocked 1:46 for 800m, Shaheed has watched his times in the 800 and
1500m creep up by an average of one second each year as he gets older.
“I will be one of the 95-year-old guys running masters races,” Shaeed admits. “I never want to
retire from track and field; it’s good for your body, and it’s good for your mind.
Now in its tenth year, USATF's Athlete of the Week program is designed to recognize
outstanding performers at all levels of the sport. USATF names a new honoree each week and
features the athlete on the USATF website. Selections are based on top performances and
results from the previous week.
