For the first time in three years the Drake Relays will feature a normal format. Two years ago the event was cancelled in the early days of the pandemic and last year’s running featured an altered schedule and numerous limitations.
That’s Relays director Blake Boldon. Last year protocols forced meet officials to separate the high school, college and professional meets. There were also limitations on attendance.
Boldon says they have learned over the last couple of year’s how important the meet is to the state.
Boldon says he is thrilled to return to being concerned out about the weather.
The first event in Drake Stadium is a week from Wednesday with the first of two days of the decathlon and heptathlon.
