Yes/No: Will McGregor win the USA 10 Mile Title?

The Medtronic Twin Cities Marathon is bolstering its reputation as one of the top road races in the United States with no less than four USA Championship races on tap for this Sunday -- the USA Men's Marathon Championships, USA Masters Men's and Women's Marathon Championships and USA Women's 10 Mile Championships.

Unsurprisingly, many Minnesota athletes will be in the mix, including a triumvirate of Team USA-MN athletes in the 10 Mile Championship - Katie McGregor, Michelle Frey and Meghan Armstrong. We will focus on the queen of the Medtronic TC 10 Miler - five-time champion Katie McGregor- with this question:

Y/N: Will Katie McGregor win the USA 10 Mile Championship at the TC 10 Mile this Sunday?

Katie McGregor is the number one seed in the USA 10 Mile and will likely be challenged by Jen Rhines, Renee Metivier Baillie and Sally Meyerhoff. McGregor has already won USA Championships at 15k and 25k in 2010. Rhines, a three-time Olympian, has been a top runner for many years and is a two-time USA 15k champion. Metivier Baillie won the 2010 USA Indoor 3000m Championship and Meyerhoff is the 2009 USA 25k champ.
