US/Belgium

No doubt you are aware that there is a football game going on in Rio today involving the US and Belgium.  Interestingly Belgium is currently playing host to a number of US track athletes who use cities, such as Leuven, as a base for the summer track season because it is easy to get from there to meets all across Europe.

Team USA Minnesota's Jon Peterson and Eric Finan are leaving today on a flight to Brussels.  Gabe Grunewald and Heather Kampf will be in Belgium as well.  Hassan Mead and Harun Abda have arrived in Leuven.  Will Leer, also in Leuven, posted his thoughts on what he'll be doing this afternoon HERE.
