RN Photo Gallery Salutes the 2011 New Balance Indoor Grand Prix, photos from PhotoRun.net, note by Larry Eder

NB GP:

Right after the meet on Saturday night, I spent about an hour writing up the essential info on the meet, event by event. A great track meet is a thing of beauty. Several things are needed. One needs a great facility: Reggie Lewis is that. One needs an enthusiastic group of fans: NB Indoor had that. One needs an energized group of athletes who love to compete : NB Indoor had that!
Over the past thirty-six hours, I have come to think that what we saw on Saturday night should not be the unusual experience: it should be the norm. Congrats to GAM for managing the meet. Congrats to New Balance for sponsoring the meet and supporting the meet for years to come. Congrats to all of the other brands, the athlete agents, the athlete managers, who supported the New Balance Indoor Grand Prix. This has given 2011 a memorable start.
Enjoy the photo gallery! Special thanks to PhotoRun.net for their photos and Chuck Bartlett for managing the RN galleries!
