It's really a milestone for us in some ways. We're bringing back something that we had lost.

There's a saying that if you compete against the best it will only make you better, and I'm hoping that will come true. We want to be able to compete and put on a first-class meet, and we want people to come back to Albuquerque because we think this is pretty special.

We have a 6-year-old and an 86-year-old in this. It's open to anyone in the community. About half of my team will be there, but we still haven't had a great participation response to this from outsiders. I hope in the future this will become big and we can start a tradition.

He's a huge, huge competitor, and today he really did try to win that race. He went out a little too fast, but you can't ever tell somebody not to try and win the race.

Leslie definitely had a great race, and so did Jackie. That's a good deal. I think New Mexico was represented very well there tonight.

She's not going to brag about herself. I'll guarantee you that. She really is somebody special.

He's just a huge competitor and he loves what he's doing. He's going to be a really good one when it's all said and done.

I'm proud of the 3,000-meter girls. They did a good job.

It was a nice meet. The athletes we put out there were competitive and we did some nice things today.
