The 101st Millrose Games, the third stop in USA Track & Field’s Visa Championship Series, is set for Friday night, Feb. 1, at Madison Square Garden. The last race of the night, the mens mile, is going to be sick. Bernard Lagat is chasing Eamonn Coghlan's legendary record of seven Wanamaker Mile victories. With Mottram and 2006 Commonwealth Games 1500m champion Nick Willis of New Zealand in the race, his sixth title is anything but assured. Galen Rupp, who holds the NCAA 10,000-meter record and is the 2007 US Outdoor Championship 10,000-meter runner-up, has also been added to the race. Check it out Friday night on ESPN 2 (live) and Saturday (taped) on NBC.

Good post, thanks. Should be a helluva race.

Be ready for a Cosby sighting.
