Mt. Tahoma Intel

The Wind
Mt. Tahoma is notoriously susceptible to shifting winds coming off the Sound. Strategize accordingly, especially in the horizontal jumps and the back straightaway.
The Grandstand
The stadium seating creates a massive wall of sound on the home stretch. The noise during the final 100 meters of the 4x400m relay is deafening.
Tent City
The fields adjacent to the track transform into a sprawling village of team tents. Space is highly competitive, so programs arrive early on Thursday to stake their claim.
The Podium
Top 8 finishers make the stage. Medals are awarded mid-meet, meaning you must balance your warmups with award schedules to ensure you don't miss your moment.
