The second day of the Toyota USATF Outdoors was June 26, 2019. Held in Drake Stadium, in lovely Des Moines, Iowa, the crowd of 7000 (seats 14,000) enjoyed two exciting 100 meter finals. Big heats, and some fine field events. Here’s our take on the second day of the championships…

Special thanks to Mike Deering handling the production with RunBlogRun podcasts (the Shoe Addicts) who put up with my histrionics. Day 2 was magnifiscent.
