After having the opportunity to watch all the action this past weekend, I
once again am reminded how exciting high level track and field is to watch.

the crowd on fire. As great as it was, I also have to re

There was a taping-the-hand issue. T&FN didn't buy the argument and
accepted the 67-9 as the HSR, even though it didn't get deserved Junior

strictures.

They used to have an indoor track meet at the Dome. I believe that it was 5
laps to the mile. So, possibly a 400 meter track could be placed within the
confines of the stadium.
Where they might put all the field events would remain to be seen.
