4. Arcadia Invitational is one of the best meets in the country! When I went there in 1995-1996, it blew my mind. Now, thirty years later, the meet continues to impress. Kudos to Rich Gonsales, protector of the Arcadia meet legacy, and his team. Kudos to NIKE for bringing in everyone!
5. The amazing Free Streaming Coverage opened the meet to another generation of dreamers! That may be the most important benefit for the sponsor, NIKE!
See you at Coffee with Larry tomorrow.
