Welcome to the 2011 adidas Grand Prix NYC. This morning, 7,000 women ran the NYRR Mini 10k, celebrating its 40th year. Linet Masai won that race, hitting the mile in 5:31, then dropping a 4:51 bomb between two and three miles, hitting 5k in 16:04, and flying away from the field, hitting 8k in 25:22, six miles in 30:26 and a final time of 31:40! Jack Waitz, the husband of the late Grete Waitz, made history as he become the first official male finisher, running just above 47 minutes!  

Please remember that both the Mini this morning and the adidas Grand Prix NYC are dedicated to the memory and legacy of Grete Waitz, the Norwegian distance runner who influenced women’s running and the development of women’s marathoning, with her exceptional running, love of the sport and pure class. Consider her today while you are watching the event! Check back with us today to keep track of the various disciplines in our sport of track & field athletics!

The adidas Grand Prix was a fine athletics meeting that had to deal with the cards that it was given, namely, the weather, and in the ultimate race, the Men’s 100 meters, three false starts altered what should have been a tremendously fast race. In the end, the battle between Tyson Gay and Steve Mullings will only add to the excitement of the meet!

The best race of the day was the high school Boys adidas Golden Spikes Mile, where Lukas Verzbicas, fresh off his two mile record last weekend, became only the second high school boy to break four minutes in a high school race, and only fifth high school boy miler to break four minutes. Meeting him after the race? None other than the ONLY other man to break four minutes in a high school only race: Jim Ryun! 

Watch for more on Sunday!

Men’ results

Men’s 100 meters

In a race marred by three false starts, the likes of what one sees in junior high track meets, what could have been a fascinating battle between Steve Mullings and Tyson Gay became an even stranger race. Mullings, he of the 9.80 at Nike Pre last week, got out well. Tyson Gay, with one of his worst starts in ages, showed how tough he was by just turning off an afterburner, and while being out of the race at 50 meters, lost the race to Mullings’ lean, 10.26 to 10.26.

Men’s 400 meters

After two seasons, Jeremy Wariner is back. Showing the agility of a veteran, Wariner, went by Gonzales and Bartholemew, holding them off, 45.13 to 45.16 to 45.17.

Fascinating in this mix was Oscar Pistorious, a man who asks no quarter, who, with two artificial limbs ran 45.89, getting closer and closer to his Olympic Standard of 45.22.

Men’s 800 meters

Going out in 50.9, the race was already changed as Abukaker Kaki dropped on the track at 250 meters, writhing in pain. Alfred Yego, a Kenyan training in Italy, took advantage of the strange race and ran the last fifty meters better than anyone, with his fine 1:46.57. I seen Yego as a Daegu threat.

Men’s 1,500 meters

David Torrence is showing that he may be the most dangerous miler in America, with this gutt wrenching win over Nick Willis, the Oly silver medalist, who is in the best form of his life at this time of the year.

Men’s 5000 meters  

In a race that kept sub 13 minute pace through 3,000 meters (7:57.98), the race came down to furious kicking as Bernard Lagat just flew down the stretch, past Tariku Bekele, but just off Dejen Gebremeskel. Know that Lagat is in top of his form and he should be high on the podium at both the US champs and Deagu.

Men’s 400m hurdles

Javier Culson of Puerto Rico showed his stuff as he outleaned Bershawn Jackson, 48.50 to 48.55. David Greene, the European champ, ran a smart 49.07, as all three stopped LJ Van Zyl’s string of seven victories in 2001, with Van Zyl in fourth in 49.09.

Men’s Pole Vault  

Romain Mesnil of France won here, in 5.52m, with Brad Walker of US in second, also at the same height. Javieme Clavier of france was third in 5.42. Renaud Lavillenie, the Euro champion and WL indoors, no heighted in conditions that would have made most vaulters cry.

Women’s Triple Jump     

Phillips Idowu of GBR, the World Champion, showed how much of a competitor he is here, jumping subpar 16.67m, but, as he told me in the pre press conference, ” All I care about here is winning.” I like Idowu, he jumps with a bit of a swagger that makes his event and him interesting.

Christian Olsson, one of the greatest triple jumpers of all times, and a role model for class athlete, showed how dangerous he will be in Daegu, taking second here in absolutely cold and windy conditions, jumping 16.29m.

World Indoor record holder Tamgho did not have a good day. I am looking forward to seeing how our friends at L’Equipe write about their superstar. Teddy Tamgho was seventh in 15.55m.

Women’s 200 meters 

This may have been the second best race of the entire meet! Coming off the turn, Allyson Felix ran a gutty final straight, with Bianca Knight, winner of 200 meters at Rome, right on her heels. In third, Shalonda Solomon caught Carmelita Jeter, in her first 200 meters of the year. Winning time, into a headwind, was 22.92.

Women’s 1,500m  

Kenia Sinclair of Jamaica, with wins in Nike Pre last week at 800 meters and 1,500 meters here, is showing that her kick is quite effective and also dangerous. Morgan Uceny of the U.S. is racing into fine shape and looks to me to be one of the top choices for the 1,500 meter team. Anna Pierce raced much better than she has this season, and she should be a huge threat in Eugene, Oregon.

Women’s Steeplechase

Milcah Chemos Cheywa, who won in Rome two weeks ago, was the winner here, in a very slow race. Sofia Assefa of Ethiopia took second in 9:27.39. and Gulnar Galkina, the Olympic champion, showed her talent in taking third. Nice run by Bridget Franek, who continues to race into shape, now leading the U.S. list. Fionnuala Britton of Ireland ran a gutty race, finishing just in front of Franek.

100 Metres Hurdles – Women                                    Wind: -3.7 m/s

Danielle Carruthers won here in a tightly contested 100m hurdle race, as Kellie Wells was handed her first defeat of the year, Tiffany Porter finished third and LoLo Jones fought gamely. Carruthers has won two races now, very close ones, in FBK Hengelo, and now here, in adidas GP NYC. This should prove interesting for her as she goes through the rounds in Eugene in two weeks time.

Women’s High Jump   

Emma Green of Sweden won here today in 1.94m. Blanka Vlasic did not clear 1.94m, and my Croatian friends, lip reading, noted that Blanka was not, well, happy, with her third miss. And no wonder, it is one of the lowest jumps that Ms. Vlasic has not cleared in a while. “It was a cold and windy day”, a certain children’s book starts.

Women’s Pole Vault

With AR record holder Jenn Suhr still on the mend, Lacy Janson and and Kylie Hutson, in rough conditions, had to go to a jump off to name the winner. Janson won with her jump of 4.27m.

Women’s Long Jump    

In the women’s Long Jump, Funmi Jimoh took some serious jumpers down today with a fine 6.48 jump. Janay DeLoach was second with a jump of 6.41m and Brittney Reese has to look at the competition, as she took third with a jump of 6.35m. It can not be overestimated how much the cold and rain effected this competition.
