The team steps off the bus into the shining sun and walks into the stadium. There is a soft breeze brushing against my skin, since this stadium has no walls to block it. Or a roof to conceal the sun. The track is 400m around, and the infield is made of grass—real grass. This can only mean one thing: outdoor is upon us!
This weekend, the Drake track and field team attended their first full-team outdoor meet at the University of Arkansas. The weather was perfect—about 70 degrees with very little wind and a glorious sun shining down on the track.
