Nothing Wrong With Track Meets Feats

In the story of the Sunkist Invitational track meet, writer Julie Cart went far overboard in focusing on the failure of the milers to threaten world records. Meanwhile, her story grudgingly noted that while several meet records were set, they were in seldom-held events. Huh!

Meet records were recorded in the men’s long jump, the men’s 3000 meters and women’s 50-meter hurdles. All are official events listed by the IAAF for world records.
