“Hurdles. There's a lot of drama, especially in the 100 meter. There's a little more danger in it. Jumping over objects at a full sprint is exciting. One mistake and it's all over.”
— Steve Wenger, health care administrator, St. Joseph, Mo.
“Javelin. My brother is competing in it. I like to watch them fly.”
— Jessica Edwards, nurse, Kansas City, Mo.
“I'd have to say shot-put. You get to see a lot more aggression. You get to see who's really here to throw.”
