Daegu

I've been waiting for these next nine days all year. Tomorrow is the start of a glorious two weeks of Track and Field World Championships in Daegu, Korea.

The first event of the championships is the marathon. Representing the US women is Katherine Newberry, Alissa McKaig, Collen DeRuck, Tera Moody and Zoila Gomez. The runners on the US men's team is Nicholas Arciniaga, Michael Morgan, Sergio Reyes, Jeffrey Eggleston and Mike Sayenko.

All of the World Championships will be broadcasted. Most of the coverage will be on Universal Sports channel. I'm really disappointed about that. My dish company doesn't have that channel. I will have to settle for the NBC coverage. NBC will be broadcasting the championships for four days only. Only four days out of nine possible days. Boo. But I will take what I can get because I love track. Can't wait to watch the best athletes in the world compete against each other.
