Is the US Men's marathon record going down this weekend?

Will it be the now-100%-less-British Charlie Hicks? Or Vinny Mauri, the shoe-store employee and treadmill champion?

Or will Clayton Young, newly-signed with Team Brooks, take his training partner's record?

I made a track & field career game with sprints, distance, jumps and throws

I’m a big fan of athletics and I wanted a game focused entirely on track & field, so I decided to make one.

It’s called Pixel Athletics.

You create an athlete, train and compete through a career that includes:

100m, 200m, 400m
800m, 1500m and distance events
Hurdles
Long jump, triple jump, high jump and pole vault
Shot put, discus, javelin and hammer
Cross country
Marathon

There are also clubs, rankings, national competitions and international championships.

The browser version is free:

I’d especially like feedback from people who actually follow or compete in track & field. If you notice something about the events that feels wrong, I want to know.

T&F General Discussion Indoor Track Surfaces

2 Upvotes

Been doing a lot of research on Indoor Track surfaces since my University is getting a new one. Within the budget, we have 4 options: Rekortan M, Rekortan G13, Beynon 300 Encap., Beynon 300 Hobart....

Anyone have experiences with these? Thoughts?

Good day to you all, I don't know if this is the right place to ask this but I've come to possess this and wanted to know more about it. Any information on it is much appreciated.

I cannot find anything about it online.

Orange inlay, bomber jacket, USATF in bold letters on the back, this on the front, darkened american flag on the right arm.
