Anyone who follows track and field knows about the house built to honor Ivo Van Damme. Van Damme was a talented middle distance runner in the mid 1970s, who could charge through the field at the end of a race like no one else. In Montreal, Ivo Van Damme won both the silver medals in the 800 meters and 1,500 meters.

Unfortunately, in December 1976, driving back from a one week training camp, Ivo Van Damme died in a car accident. 

The Van Damme Memorial was developed in his honor. Members of his own club volunteered in the first year, which drew 45,000, to work at the meet. I met one gentleman who ran the high jump height board, when Dwight Stones and Jacek Wzola dueled, long after the other events were finished, to the delight of the fans. 

The King Baudouin Stadium is a positive sanctuary for our sport. 

And on Friday night, September 6, it was rocking. From meet record pole vaulting by Renaud Lavillenie, to Mo Aman setting National Records and World Leaders in the 800 meters, to Martyn Rooney and Kevin Borlee, he of the brothers Borlee, all three of them in the final race of the night, to the delight of the Belgian crowd. 

During the 5,000 meter race, where Bernard Lagat, by finishing second, showed, at 36, he is not done, and Galen Rupp, by finishing fifth, showed he has years to go, and Evan Jager and Chris Derrick, with their personal bests, showed that they are just beginning, it was announced that Belgium was winning its qualifying World Cup game over Scotland, the crowd went nuts. 

Such is this cathedral of sport.

And, it was great….
