Best place for a track meet?

[saywhat?]

That would be amazing.

How many runners could we cram into the "stalls" that they put the horses into at the start? They put like close to 20 horses in there, so maybe 40 runners? Instead of a starter's pistol, we'd have that bell thingy that goes off in horse races. Sweet. And we could wear horse numbers (smocks) visible from the side, and hit each other with whips if he started slowing down. I want to be known as "Seabiscuit" when I begin my kick. I'm calling Louisville right now to make arrangements. Great idea, Parks

This whole category for best place for a track meet will need to be re-evaluated next year when BA reconstructs their track. It'll be fabulous

Despite being resurfaced, it will still only be six lanes. Eight lanes won't come until the stadium seats themselves are redone, which will be a few years down the road. It'll still be a nice six lanes though.

hmm. so they're not going to get it all done in one go?

MBA is a great place for meets.  The Doug Hall Relays are always well organized and efficient.  Coaches Pruitt and Compton always do a good job with their meets.

 

I would have to agree that Coach Pruitt does a remarkable job running track/cross country meets. i have never met a guy so punctual: "the race will start in 2 minutes...mark that 1 1/2".

 

did i mention what a great all around guy pruitt is? and what is up with that hat of his? it's really quite stylish and maybe a bit intimidating if i do say so myself.

This just shows how one quality character can totally bring a place together to put on a really good track meet. Whether Pruitt is trying to set up the FAT or just walking around the vicinity just being himself, his antics are priceless. For this I think he deserves a title.

as far as a title goes, he will always be affectionately known as the MBAJA.
