Simmons she's done okay she's retired so you just dodged a bullet that's my mom senior English teacher Kathleen you guys came all the way out from Boise so you guys are awesome Barry is the champion what's up you might remember Austin from the BMX great series we did how your shoes treating you very well what can you run a 400 in maybe 50 or yeah you're gonna run yeah all right let's do this we're gonna have a hell of a race all right then rather than throw the kids into the deep end this is what I want to do I think we're gonna run a women's heat and of course I'll pay the fastest female finisher and then I've got a little surprise for the men I'm an 800-meter runner and so we're gonna do an 800 meter start this will be like an abbreviated 800 where we cut at the cones it'll be pure chaos wait for this all right is this everybody who all's racing all right I think what we're gonna do is we'll do a women's race and then we'll do a men's race sound about right yep okay women over here how do we got one two three four perfect I love it all right what's your name I'm Nick very nice to meet you you said you're from Junction City yeah and you run track for Junction City yes what'd

I'm a big fan of vapor flies are you excited for the 400 you normally run the 5k 10k all out 400 today now in case you hadn't heard there is prize money the fastest female finisher will get $100 bill [Applause] [Music] all right let's get them lined up oh man they're off one of the things I love most about the 400 meters is you get to stay in your lanes usually now that might sound crazy coming from an 8 15 guy but there's something so awesome about being in your lane taking tactics out of it and just going all out from the gun and that's exactly what Jen's doing here she's already made up to stagger after the first turn and she opens up that stride she's moving down the backstretch really really well now if I'm nakiya right here I'm thinking to myself I've got to stay as close to her shoulder as possible knowing that she's probably going to get a step or two on me in this final turn as she's in an inside lane Jen still out front nakiya going too deep to try to catch up to her but I think Jenna she starts to pull away here I think she's probably gonna come away with the win 40 seconds 41 42 she's coming off the curve 300 meters in 45 seconds can she break 60 Jen with that beautiful stride she's taking off she's definitely got this let's see if she can get under 60 there we are the guys cheering her on what an awesome run by Jen 57 58 59 Oh just over 60 she comes through the finish line in just under sixty two seconds what a phenomenal run by our winner Jen and here comes nakiya 107 we have two other finishers one of the things I love about track and field is we always stay and cheer everybody on it's give it up for Valerie coming out and running her first quarter that's a new personal best for her all right 62 seconds Congrats you made that look easy as promised hundred dollars richer we're gonna see you again for another race the mile next weeks the mile if you want to watch her kick butt in the mile we're running an all-out mile next week smash

alright how many you got it I say 14 this is perfect so what we're gonna do we're gonna run it kind of like an eight we're gonna put two on each starting line at the 800-meter line and then we'll run to the cones and we're gonna break at the cones just like you wouldn't in 800 cuz we all know the 800 is the best event in track and field then we'll run it and basically Lane one on the rail until we finish stay in your lane till the cones then break then chaos finish first one across the line gets $100 bill and out of curiosity who's the youngest one here youngest is back there in the purple all right best of luck to you guys let's throw down I'm not even joking yet like Diamond League eight hundreds they would line up 14 guys just like this so you could be next to David Rudisha sharing a line like sir please go ahead what's your name Dane I'm Nick Dana and I are gonna take a lane eight you want inside or outside you take inside I always like Lane eight because I'm at least I'm leading for at least a step or two right here we go the men's 400 meters all out and just when I got done saying how much I love staying in lanes of course in this one we won't we will stand our lane for the first hundred meters break at the cones now because of that we're getting out hard look at how hard everybody's getting out this is pure chaos it reminds me exactly of immense 800 at the Diamond League when we hit the cones will break and this the elbows the legs you have to make sure you get out hard let's see coming off the turn who actually got out the hardest and it is Oscar Oscar the champion from the BMX race 23 seconds through 200 meters he is out to prove a point but not to be outdone here comes Justin Justin you remember finished second the blue-jean mile he's a 404 mile er with a lethal kick I don't know Oscar I hope the kid wins it but I don't know if he has it left as they swing off the final turn there he goes Justin moves by him and here comes Evan Evan who finished second in several races that I put on can Evan finally get his first win it's Justin it's Evan it's Oscar who's gonna get the hundred dollars 49 the the 51 what a fast race and it is boom Justin for the win Evan another second-place finish 53 for Oscar what a phenomenal run by our medalists and here I come 54 mid the crowd asked me before the gun went off what I thought I'd run and I said maybe 54 on a good day I'm basing that on the fact that I ran 54 in Crocs few months back and I'm really pleased with that Schilling and here's our youngest competitor across the line in a respectable 74 seconds nice job second again one of these days man waiter dude Congrats well would you finish in the Mile blue-jean Mile I got three okay third in the blue-jean mile but you Dean yourself today does
