New York Relays to host adidas Dream Mile and Dream 100 automatic qualifier at Icahn Stadium on April 19, 2015
We are very excited to announce our partnership with the adidas Grand Prix and bringing an automatic qualifier to the New York Relays for the Dream Mile and Dream 100 meter dash. The adidas High School Dream Mile and Dream 100 are the premier races in the country for high school athletes. The races are held at the adidas Grand Prix, slated for June 13th at Icahn Stadium in New York City.. Both the Dream Mile and Dream 100 are invitation only races with the Mile featuring the 14 best athletes in the country on both the men's and women's sides. The objective of the mile races is to break the 4:00 mile barrier,(only five high school athletes have done this, Luckas Verzbicas being the last accomplishing this in the 2011 Dream Mile) and to break the national record on the girls side. The Dream 100 will feature the 9 best athletes in the country on both the men's and women's sides. The New York Relays winners in the mile and 100 will serve as an automatic qualifier for the Dream Mile and Dream 100., The meet will also feature qualifiers in the following relays events:
