Addition of Shalane Flanagan makes UW Indoor Preview meet even more stacked...

The 2018 season opening UW Indoor Preview just got another jolt, with the word from UW meet management that 2017 New York City Marathon champion Shalane Flanagan (above/photo by Paul Merca) is a late entry to Saturday’s meet, where she will run the 3000 meters.

Flanagan, the silver medalist in the 10000 meters at the 2008 Olympics in Beijing, and a bronze medalist in the 2011 IAAF World Cross Country Championships, had hinted on her Instagram account in the last day that she would be running 3000 and 5000 meter races this indoor season.


Also added to the field as late entries are fellow Bowerman TC members Lopez Lomong in the men’s mile, and Andrew Bumbalough in the men’s 3000.

As always, entries are subject to change.

paulmerca.blogspot.com will have a full preview of the UW Indoor Preview coming later this week.
