The adidas Boost Boston Games was held in Boston, MA for the second time in 2017. Over 100 meters, Symon Mason won the the race! Tori Bowie set a WR over 150 meters on the 200 meter straight track. A good crowd enjoyed the sprints, long jump and pole vault. As Maurice Greene noted, the street Games idea should be taken across the country. That would be a fun trend.

Of RunBlogRun, his daily pilgrimage with the sport, Larry says: "I have to admit, I love traveling to far away meets, writing about the sport I love, and the athletes I respect, for my readers at runblogrun.com, the most of anything I have ever done, except, maybe running itself."
