Catch Team Nutrilite athletes Sanya Richards (Women's 400 Meters) and tentatively Liu Xiang (110 Meter Hurdles) live on Sunday, June 8 on NBC from 1 to 3 p.m. PT (4 to 6 p.m. ET )and look for the myriad ways the Nutrilite brand is represented on and around the track.

Of note...

  • Sanya, the American record holder for the 400 meter sprint, wants to be first off her block to defend her American record.
  • Even though Asafa will not be running due to a minor injury, he will be available for a "meet and greet" with fans, along with Sanya.
  • An estimated 250 IBOs will attend the event with 50 of them as VIPs with great seats and special access to Asafa and Sanya during the event, a T-shirt commemorating the event, and a complimentary 10 day supply of Double X.
  • The Prefontaine Classic is the premiere track & field meet in the United States, and the only stop in North America on the prestigious World Athletics Tour. Since 2000, it has been ranked first among all annual track & field meets outside of Europe by the IAAF, the international governing body for the sport.
  • Athletes must be ranked in the Top 50 in the world in their events to be eligible to compete in this elite track & field showcase.
  • Attendance at the meet, held each year at historic Hayward Field in Eugene, Oregon, has traditionally been the largest in the United States. Each of the meets for the past ten years has seen standing-room-only sell-out crowds.
