The shift to the outdoor season is now complete, and the stage is set for track and field athletes to shine under the open sky. With indoor championships in the rearview, competitors are embracing the unique rhythm of outdoor meets-where weather, wind, and wider turns bring both challenge and excitement. Gone are the tight curves and climate-controlled arenas; in their place come longer straights, fresh air, and the pursuit of season-defining marks.
This past weekend marked a true kickoff to the outdoor campaign, as top athletes across the country stepped into the spotlight with standout performances. From sun-soaked sprints to breakthrough distance races under the evening lights, the early season delivered plenty of promise. With each lap, leap, and throw, the journey toward championship season is officially underway.
