    I am thinking maybe 800 and mile or 3200.. Not sure yet.. The 1500 last time had the smallest number of people with just one heat but the 800 and 3000 had several heats.. Maybe with one heat it's a little more intimidating.. But you speedsters will be totally fine with whatever you do!!

    Is anyone planning to get up there before 7pm who can try to hold a spot on the bleachers on the side of the track? Might be nice to have somewhere to all sit and keep our stuff together.. Maybe first person to get there, try to hold a spot?

    I'm trying to get there around 6:30/6:45, so I'll hold a spot or look if anyone else from the team got there before me.
