Runblogrun will be there, January 26, 2019, at the Reggie Lewis Center, from 4 PM to 7 PM! This meet is all about putting together nearly three hours of the finest athletics seen in North America, with standing room only crowd who breathes track & field. While the sprints, shot put and pole vault always have their fans, this meet is about the middle distance races.

Nick Willis versus Yomif Kejelcha, the debuts of Gabby Thomas and Sydney McLaughlin, NB’s next generation of stars, and Jenny Simpson and Emma Coburn will delight.

The Mondo 200 meter track is all about fast and furious racing. Global Athletics & Marketing puts on this fine meet, which is sponsored by New Balance. 24 years ago, the modest indoor meeting founded by Mark Wetmore and Larry Barthlow was fun, but it has grown intro its own force. In 2019, the NB Indoor GP will be the beginning of the 2019 IAAF World Indoor Tour.

Please enjoy our modest podcast, saluting this fantastic event. This writer has missed 2 years in the last 24. Special thanks to Mike Deering/The Shoe Addicts, for cranking this one out as I landed in Dubai, UAE.
