BATC Preview: Heath, Torrence to Compete at US 1 Mile Road Championships
On Thursday, May 13, the BATC's Garrett Heath and David Torrence will toe the line in Minneapolis, Minnesota for the 2010 USA 1 Mile Road Championships. The field this year is very competitive, with Olympian Lopez Lomong entered as well as a number of other professional runners.
Torrence won the event last year by over 2.5 seconds in a time of 3:59.3 with a furious closing kick that separated him from the rest of the field. Fresh off a recent personal best in the 800m, Torrence has shown he is in great shape and ready to compete on Thursday.
Similarly, Heath is coming off of a great showing at the World Indoor Track Championships where he finished 7th in the final of the 1500m. He is poised to be extremely competitive in this field of elite runners.
