Lambie's splits: 65.3 (400), 1:39.2 (600), 2:13.9 (800) John
Carroll's report:
"Ari finished hardly winded and she broke in a big smile
when it was announced that she just run the nation's leading
time at 1000 meters; that she had broken Bonnie Yuen’s
(1981) state best (2:49.30); and inked her name in the number
three spot on the all time US list. Later the Stanford bound
Lambie anchored her 4 x 800 relay team, taking the baton in
5th place, some 100 meters behind the leader (Weston). She
gave the crowd another show as she zipped a 2:15.1 anchor
to just miss winning. Weston won in 9:58.44 with Bromfield
second in 9:58.52."

Dome Track Reborn
INDIANAPOLIS IN 2/10/03 -- The Indianapolis RCA Dome indoor
track that saw 39 still standing NCAA Division I and Division II
records was dismantled in 1999 and put in storage. Now, a coalition
of Indiana organizations led by Butler University coach Joe Franklin
have taken the 200-meter banked Mondo track out of storage and put
it to use in a temporary facility at Plainfield IN west of the Indianapolis
Airport. Several high school and college meets are being held this
season. Story of the
salvage effort. See how a "Track In a Box - some assembly
required" was transformed from 11 semi-tractor trailer loads
of equipment into a functioning indoor track. |

Maclay Tallahassee jr Ryan Deak broke open the race midway and won by
8 seconds over Vanguard Ocala sr Steve Hassen. Deak told flrunners.com:
"My whole race plan was to nail the third lap, and not worry about
the fourth. Because I know that I'm still pumping in all these miles,
and (I knew) my mileage would pay off in the last quarter and I'd be able
to hang on." It was the second fastest HS boys mile in the country
this year (Mike McGrath OR 4:10.87). In the girls race, Bishop Kenny Jacksonville
teammates Courtney Hall and Kelly Marshall finished 1-2
