Magdalena Lewy-Boulet, Alysia Montano, and David Torrence of the BATC are competing tonight at the DN Galan Stockholm Diamond League Meet!
Magda "Chewy Lewy" is competing in the Women's 5000m where World and American Record Attempts will be made! Her first track 5000m since the NCAA Championships in 1997 (where she placed 3rd) and her FIRST European track meet, Magda is looking to take a huge chunk off her PR and test her marathon strength against the track world.
Alysia Montano will look to show off her speed as she competes in the Women's 800m, where EVERY single entrant has a sub-2min PR and season's best. There will not be a faster and deeper 800m until the World Championship Final, so this race will be a great opportunity for Alysia to see where she stands going into Daegu.
David Torrence is entered in the "B" section of the 1500m. Trying to PR and get the Olympic "A" standard, David will be running in his last 1500m of the first half of the European Season.
Good luck to our athletes in Sweden!
