There was a mile long traffic jam Saturday in Austin, Texas.  And it didn't happen on I-35.

The men's invite mile was a complete bumper-to-bumper affair.

After the field crawled through the first 200 in about 34 seconds, it became apparent that the rest of the race would be a sit-and-kick affair.  

But I don't even know if that term serves this one justice.  In one of the strangest miles I've seen, the field remained bunched (and I mean BUNCHED) through about 1550 meters!  The entire race unfolded in about 150 meters, with spots 1 through about 10 undecided until the final steps.

Check out the race ... you haven't seen many like this before.
