This has been one of the hardest seasons to keep up with that I can remember. And that is actually a good thing. Literally every time I've tried to sit down and write about my thoughts on the season, news of something faster, further, or higher goes across my screen. Making me feel like I'm always behind Read More...

The track season just went into overdrive. It's Championship time - NCAA's with the Trials in a few weeks! The only thing more exciting is the Olympics. If this weekend's NCAA's was any indication, the summer of 2016 is going to be HOT and memorable. Personally I'm not a fan of the current NCAA format - I said that last year Read More...

The U.S. began the first stages of putting together the Olympic squad for London today with the running of the Marathon Trials. If the results in Houston are any indication of the overall team we’ll be sending to London, then we’re going to be loaded by the end of June, because the marathoner’s came through in awesome fashion!
