Måkestad ready to go in Paris at European Indoor championships...

Before I sign off, here's a link to a blog post by former Washington Husky Ingvill Måkestad (photo courtesy runingvill.wordpress.com) as she prepares to run in the 1500 meters at the European Indoor Championships in Paris.

Her semifinal round is scheduled Friday at 5:25 pm, Paris time (8:25 am, Seattle time), with the finals slated for Saturday.

In her two indoor races this season (Birmingham & Stockholm), she's set two consecutive Norwegian national records in the 1500, lowering it to 4:08.65 on February 22nd.
