The men’s and women’s 1500 meters finals and the women’s 100 meter hurdles are the headline races but there’s a whole lot more great action coming your way today.

The Cain Train departs the station at 5:46pm ET, when the 17-year-old high school junior tries to win the women’s 1500 meters. Top challengers include Shannon Rowbury, Morgan Uceny, and Treniere Mosier.

A wide-open men’s 1500 meters (6:40pm ET) should be a great race between such stars as Matt Centrowitz, Leo Manzano, Will Leer, Lopez Lomong, Andrew Wheating and Mac Fleet.

The women’s 100 meter hurdles final (6:52pm ET) brings out stunning newcomer Brianna Rollins, already one of the fastest runners in history, against a newly resurgent Lolo Jones, the hometown hero.
