What makes the Reggie Lewis Center so magical? For over two decades, the New Balance Indoor GP has been hosted at the Reggie Lewis Center. I love walking onto the track during the final set up, and from the media section, I watch the stands fill.
Over about an hour, the place goes from dead quiet to standing room only. And there is this rhythm in the Reggie. The meet focuses on the middle distance races, but the high jump, the sprint and sprint hurdles get the fans attentnion. Then, each year, all hell breaks loose. A surprise race, a close finish, and finally, the mile, the 1,500 meters and the 3000 meters.
With a great final race, the fans go out talking and are already looking for the next year. That is the magic of the New Balance Indoor Grand Prix.
