Looking ahead to… indoor and cross country action
The end of January witnesses the start of the 2011 IAAF Indoor Permit Meeting season. There are eight global indoor meetings this year beginning with the oldest indoor event of them all, the 104th edition of the Millrose Games in New York, USA on 28 January 2011 and ending with XL-Galan in Stockholm, Sweden on 22 February 2011, a series of events which annually form the heart of the international indoor season.

And just as the indoor halls of the northern hemisphere are set to buzz with excitement, the 2010/2011 IAAF Cross Country Permit season, which began in Burgos, Spain on 7 November 2010 and will end in Albufeira, Portugal on 6 March 2011, soon commences its second half. The Cinque Mulini in San Vittore Olona, Italy, which celebrates its 79th edition on 6 February 2011, is as revered a name to cross country running as the Millrose is to indoor athletics, and is the seventh of this season’s series of twelve IAAF Cross Country Permit meetings.
