USATF Indoor National Championships: High Schoolers to compete in Boston - DyeStat.comPublished by
Five preps will be among the professionals and collegians competing at the USA Indoor Track and Field Championships this weekend, Feb. 23-24, at the Reg in Boston. They include prep track and field’s top athlete, one of its greatest relay performers, two rising sprint stars, and a young shot putter who shone on the world stage last summer.
A clearer picture of Chanelle’s fitness level was the 1:10.30 500m US prep record she ran in January at The Armory. Another record attempt, at the 1000m, fell short due to the overly blazing pace she set at the beginning, but the 2:45.76 she finished with is still fast enough to lead the entire US in the infrequently-run event. It’s fair to say Chanelle’s at least in shape to smack down her indoor PR of 2:04.96, and maybe even chase her outdoor PR. The best listed entry mark in the field is 2:03.17 and it’s not outlandish to say she could be competing in the top half of the field in the final, if she runs well and smart. It will also be excellent preparation for her planned participation in the Olympic Trials this summer. Read the full article at: www.dyestat.com
