“I love competing in this race. The crowd is here is always phenomenal,” Miller-Uibo said in Hungaray. “I don’t think that I prepared as much as I should for my first 200 of the year, but at this point we’re just going with the flow. The main goal is always just to get out and run fast, but at this point we’re just trying to see where we are at this point.”
