======================================================

2007 DDT debut sets a tough standard to follow!


This meet's 2007 debut featured eventual NON mile champ Sam Borchers running 4:10.83 1600 with a blazing 57.9/2:00.3 finish, as well as 8:59.91 3200 by Dan Jackson. Those were just two of a slew of outstanding distance performances. Read Jeff Hollobaugh's story HERE.


From the meet director: The Darby Distance Twilight is a truly unique distance only track meet. The meet is designed to have multiple heats of distance races to ensure fast times, but also to provide experience for developing distance runners. The meet will be held exclusively at night and will feature multiple distance races ... Our hope is to attract individuals and teams from across the Midwest including the best distance runners from Ohio. The meet will also be held on Friday to not interfere with regularly scheduled Saturday invites. Also the meet will be featured on www.dyestat.com to help your individuals and teams gain exposure. This information and other specific details (lodging, restaurants, etc) can be located at www.hilliard.k12.oh.us/dby/ under the activities menu
