More on volunteering

The 100th Millrose Games

What can I say about the Millrose Games.

It's a commercial break right now. I've been watching for 52 minutes (which, unfortunately in TV terms means about five events) and I'm ready to shed a tear for the beauty of athletes achieving such purity through personal struggle.

Oh, did I mention that they have high school events at this meet? That's how we do it in track. High schoolers get a chance to run at the same meet as Carl Lewis, Jesse Owens, and my newest fave: Tirunesh Dibaba.

I'm also reminded to be extra thankful that Slate has recently become such a superstar runner. Runners are hot.

Turn it on tomorrow at 2 on NBC. C'mon, what are you doing at 2 on saturday.

That better be one FINE t-shirt!
