This came across my e-mail...thought I would post here for others.

Subject: Blood pressure study for masters athletes at Spaulding Rehab Hospital
My name is Glen Picard and I am the Research Coordinator/Exercise
Physiologist for The Cardiovascular Research Laboratory at Spaulding
Rehabilitation Hospital. We are currently looking for Masters Athletes between
the ages of 55 and 75 to participate in a NIH funded research study focusing on
how age and activity levels effect blood pressure control. To fit our criteria
of Masters Athletes we are looking for people who have been regular exercisers
for more than 10 years exercising > 150 min/week. Subjects will receive at no
cost: VO2max treadmill test (aerobic capacity), Blood work analysis (including
lipid profile), body composition analysis and $150 stipend. The time requirement
is 3 visits to Spaulding Rehabilitation Hospital for a total of 8 hours. I will
attach a flyer for people in your group that may be interested in participating.
I would also welcome the chance to come out and talk with anyone that may be
interested if you think that is appropriate.

Thank You-Glen
