Third fastest time all-time in the NCAA indoors? That is really impressive!

I wonder if having an indoor track facility is in the long range master plan. How many Big Ten schools don’t have one?

Obviously this comment shows I don’t know beans about track ... didn’t know there was a 500-meter event.

The 500 meter race is not run very often. Some events have 300 meter and or 600 meter and or 1000 meter races that are not run outdoors. The 500 meters is not run at the Big Ten championships. None of these distances are run in the NCAA championships either but the 600 meter race is part of the IC4A meet.
