Will any of you be competing in any American Track League events this summer? Link here: http://www.americantrackleague.com

Specifically the first meet in Bloomington, IN.

Good luck to each of you this outdoor season!

I'm going to try to make it to one or the other- my folks are way up north now and saw you race in Charlevoix. My dad is a huge track fan (ran for Michigan back in the 60s) and he got a kick out of seeing you run professionally after seeing you race at the GLI and Honor Roll Meet all those years.

Best of luck to you.

Ha! I'm smart enough not to race you in anything over a mile on the track. Yeah, you'll beat me, but you can't lap a guy in the 800! Probably.....

Is Liam Boylan-Pett still competing? Man he used to destroy me in high school. Never lapped me though!

They haven't announced sponsors, but a few pretty elite runners have supposedly committed to Bloomington already. Lolo Jones is the biggest name, and Andy Bayer of one of the Oregon teams (who can keep Schumacher and Oregon Elite straight). They're using Ashton Eaton and a few other US Champions in their advertising too so it sounds like they at least think they have a decent field.
