Catch the Live Web Cam for Portland 2016!

A web cam which shows construction of the temporary 7,000-seat stadium and 200-meter banked oval track being built inside the Oregon Convention Center in Portland is now LIVE! The stadium and track will be utilized for the USATF Indoor Championships, March 11-12, and the IAAF World Indoor Championships, March 17-20. You can access the most recent images and a time-lapse video by pressing the “play” button in the lower right hand corner of the window on the front page of www.Portland2016.com.

Editor’s note: A fun view of the amount of work that goes into moving and constructing an indoor track. Looking forward to seeing all there in the next few weeks!
