Drew Hunter's performance was in an indoor race. All of the athletes were seniors except for Luka Verzbicas, who was a junior. |

The Saint Louis Festival of Miles is a track meet that showcases one event--the one-mile run. In 2017, its tenth year, it has become an evening of invitational mile races at the junior high, high school, and pro level. Somehow a couple of 800-meter races slipped into the program, and in 2017 Caitlin Collier of Jacksonville, Florida Bolles High School won the women's 800 in a stunning 2:03.32.
