Lyon entry deadline TODAY for Yanks; uniforms will be Beijing’s

Tops like this for Lyon.

Today (Monday) is the last day to enter Lyon worlds. USATF site says: “The official deadline is June 2, 2015 (11:59 pm UTC+1), or midnight in France; in the USA the cutoff time ranges from early morning to late afternoon on June 2 depending on time zone. The best approach is to register no later than June 1.” Also I’ve gotten confirmation on free uniforms for Team USA. Actually, they will be free tops. Entrants will be able to buy bottoms for 75 percent off. Whatever. In any case, I hear that the Nike uniforms will be circa 2008 — the kind worn by Beijing Olympians. USATF promises to email all entrants with logistics of ordering the kits. Lyon site shows who’s entered in what. I’ve also found this video of USATF CEO Max Siegel announcing the free uniforms for 2015. Max talks masters at 1 hour 32 minutes into the clip, so advance slider to that point.

    No Whiteman this year? He went 1:49.24 last week for at least his 8th sub 1:50 800 since turning 40.
    Wonder if he can reset his record at age 43.
