One of the great things about living in Los Angeles is the very large and diverse athletic community. The L.A. Unified School District celebrates this athletic abundance by hosting the Summer Grand Prix Track Series on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday nights at three different local high schools. The competition is fierce as many of the top high school, college and post collegiate track athletes compete for cash prizes and the bragging rights of being L.A.’s best.
Since I don’t do speedwork in my training, these meets are excellent preparation for the upcoming US Masters Track and Field Championships in Maine.
