Gotham Cup: Order of events

Next up on the indoor track tour is another trip to Ocean Breeze, this time for the Gotham Cup. This is a meet that our friend Nick McDonough has been putting on for quite a while – first at the Armory and now at Ocean Breeze. A quick check of the blog archives finds that the meet has been held at least since January 2008 (that’s the earliest the blog goes back, as it was started in the summer of 2007). So yeah, a lot of history for us at this meet. Here is the order of events – updated with time schedule now (as of Thursday afternoon)!
