As we all know the Dunamis Sports group has put together an all-star meet in the Dunamis Sports Group Prep Classic. With an all-star meet, there needs to be an all-star track, and they've lived up to the hype. The track being built in The Star for this weekend's meet is going to be an exact replica of the 2016 World Indoor Championships structure used in Portland Oregon. Check out a timeline of it being built from the announcement of the meet to the most recent update.
