The USATF Foundation is inviting track & field fans to the 2022 Arcadia Invitational on Saturday, April 9th to celebrate Allyson Felix’s final competitive season. While the meet is traditionally one of the top high school meets in the country, it’s also your opportunity to join the fun by securing a lane on the track to compete against Allyson in a 100m Charity Race. The event is reserved for Allyson and 8 charity participants to race under the lights in front of a packed stadium.
To be considered for a spot on the starting line with Allyson, a $2500 donation is required. 100% of the gift will go to support track & field by being equally divided between the Foundation’s elite grant program (www.usatffoundation.org) and one of Allyson’s favorite charities, Right To Play (www.righttoplayusa.org). We expect the lanes to fill quickly so please contact the USATF Foundation office to secure your spot at info@usatffoundation.org. A representative from the Foundation will contact you shortly after receiving your inquiry.
