Albuquerque (spelled "Alburquerque" by some die-hards) sits at 5,280 feet, so bring your altitude conversions: It'll be fast sprint times and long throws, countered by some stomach-churning distance races.
If his effort earlier this week is any indication, Aaron Braun should be ready, as will teammate Reuben Chebon-Mwei (who ran a quick altitude steeple a day earlier) and a host of Colorado schools (Western State, Mines, Metro State, for starters).
This is about as close as nationals will likely ever get to Alamosa -- congrats to the atheltics department staff that made it happen!
