What's In Store At Icahn?

by Brett Hoover — posted on 3/6/2013

Even with a winter storm bearing down on the East Coast on Wednesday, the track & field season will transition quickly from indoor to outdoor. That means things are gearing up at Icahn Stadium on Randall's Island, which opened for practice on Tuesday.

The first event of the outdoor season is scheduled to be the PSAL Season Opener on March 23. In April, the NYC Mayor's Cup and the New York Relays take center stage.

And then the big event — the adidas Grand Prix, which is one of the Diamond League stops. Expect some huge names (and expect them to come soon!). In fact, the Facebook page for the adidas GP ran this on Tuesday — "We'll be announcing our first star athletes tomorrow ... think stunning last laps, world record, Olympic gold, triple World Champion, Trials surprise, relay magic."

Here's a look at the entire Icahn schedule for 2013.
