He's hiding in plain sight - the SEC meet, ran a 46.11.

Wariner hasn't raced indoors since 2004, so it's not exactly a big shock to not see him compete. Dix also hasn't been much of an indoorsman throughout his career. He had a few (not many) races in 2008 and 2010, but none in 2009 or 2011.

In the Millrose webcast, Dwight Stones said Lashawn Merritt was being coached by Loren Seagrave. Is this true?

None of it is a shock. Just wondering if anyone has heard how training is going, injuries, etc...

Thanks for the updates.

Wariner runs in heat 1 of the 200m tonight at the Arkansas Final Qualifier. Should be interesting.

Edit:

20.93 for Wariner. Going into this meet that time would have ranked him 8th in the world. I guess that's not too bad for a guy who's never run a 200m indoors (at least I don't ever remember him running one before).

Wariner was listed on that "Nike" 4x4 that DNF. Do you know if he was to run or did run on that relay?

Carmelita Jeter will probably make her 2012 debut at the Penn Relays.

Story linked on front page says he was to run, but one of his teammates DNFed, so he never got the stick.
