Indoor track is HERE big time this weekend. Official 1/27-1/28 discussion thread.

How can I watch I have hulu

Just added Addisu Yihune, the Karlsruhe W 3000 and the Razorback meet (W 800; M 3000; Roe and Van Camp in the mile) to my wkend notes. I’m a little surprised the FL enigma isn’t racing in Fayetteville. Also keeping an eye on Beamish, who may be transitioning to the steeple this year. Can he out-kick Kincaid and McDonald in the 5?

I have to sit down and map out which events ro watch. I lean toward the 3000 at Arkansas as the best event.

I am psyched to go NYC and watch the Millrose Games for the first time!

People running insane times on BU's track that they won't touch again

I'm excited to see Fouad Messaoudi run the mile at the Razorback invite,
12th in xc for his first 10k, Ran 3:38 last year + 7:44 3k in december,
I think he's the dark horse for nationals.

From what I can tell most of the best races go off at different times. One exception is M mile at Arkansas seems to be at same time as M mile at Dr Sander. W mile at Arkansas seems to be just after W 1000 at Dr Sander.

I have a vested interest in some other races that aren't the premier events.

Maybe DMR?

Britton Wilson running the 800 at the Razorback. She is fantastic at the 400, 400h, and has a run a solid indoor 600. I'm not expecting a fantastic result by any means but it will be interesting to see what she can do.

Abby Steiner in the 400 at the Razorback. In her effort a few weeks ago she did not have much competition. Shamier Little is in the field and won this last year. She has a 49.91 to her name. Nicole Yeargin of Great Britain is also in the field along with Na'Asha Robinson and Brittany Brown. Anna Hall is also listed. She is solid in the 800 but I am not sure about her 400 ability. The meet has been slow to get the heat assignments up but I would expect all of these women to be in the same heat. I would not be surprised if Sanya Richards-Ross's meet record of 51.45 went down.

Katelyn Tuohy in the mile at Dr Sander and how she does against the professionals. Ceili McCabe is also in the field but this is a bit short for her.

Personally,

1. BU men’s 3k. Excited to see what Nuguse does in his first winter as a pro, having gained strength with ON and looking phenomenal in that 1600 TT. I think he’ll win, but Grijalva and Garcia Romo can’t be discounted. Then you’ve got Kessler stepping up in distance, plus Bosley perhaps giving indication of his future as a pro.

2. BU men’s 5k. If Klecker breaks 13 he’ll be #2 U.S. and top-10 in the world all time indoors, but if Kincaid’s in shape he’s probably hoping to spoil the party. Additionally with 9 other guys with PRs from 13:07-13:17 in a race paced like this, chances are good we’ll be seeing someone in a new light after tomorrow.

3. Hurta vs. Wilson vs. The Ghost of Jennifer Toomey at 1k. Really hard to know who to pick in this one. On the one hand, 1k is perfect for Hurta and she’s on the upswing—I expect she’ll break 4 and make 1:57 routine in 2023; on the other, Wilson is so tactically savvy indoors that it’s almost hard to see her getting beaten.

Aren't they still 3 weeks away?

I literally make a list of the times of all the races in my local time zone, and where I need to watch them, and then hop back and forth all day. Last weekend I blew hours like that on a few college meets. Sure is fun, though.

Hobbs, Ferlic, Flannigan at BU. Like to see Clayton run.

Oh jeez, and of couse tuohy palooza on sat.

Yup, Valby is in DMR.

I'm most excited about Razorback & Dr Sanders.

Razorback - DMR, womens mile, 800m

Sanders - mile & Hurta Klecker / Mu showdown

Correction - hurta klecker v Wilson lol. Was just reading up on Mu and mistyped

Aptly put. I'd say this applies to the BU M 3k and Dr Sander mile also.
