You can qualify for the Olympic Trials by running a race indoors, as long as it's the same distance, or a distance that USATF has said is equivalent, like running a mile to qualify for the 1500.
But you can't qualify for the Olympic Trials in the 110 hurdles by running the 60 hurdles.

That's what I thought. I wonder why Beard didn't correct the Today Show folks...
He might not have been given the chance to review the article. And it just doesn’t matter. Guy has run a qualifying time and will be there. He could have easily said Milrose qualified him for indoors nationals and he is aiming to peak at the Olympic trials and it all got squished together. Nobody expects general articles like this to be super correct. Nobody is that naive.
