Track series ends successful run

The Superior Mini Track and Cross Country Series ended its four-week run Tuesday.

“It was a lot of fun,” said Dan Conway, meet organizer. “Another good group — a lot of kids, a lot of adults.”

Turnout has been consistently high for this year’s events. The running series began in July with a record group of about 60 people and continued to be a hit for the next three weeks.

Conway couldn’t say if Olympic fever was partly responsible for the larger crowds, but he was hopeful the mini meets would create a few lifelong runners.

“We get all these kids coming to these meets, who knows, maybe one of them will become an Olympian,” Conway said.
