The 7th Ryan Shay Mile will take place in Charlevoix, Michigan on Saturday, July 26 at 10:30am. This is an invitational road mile with separate races for men and women. It features $4000 in prize money ($1000 champion, $500 runner-up, $250 third) sponsored by Bergmann Marine. This event provides elite middle-distance and distance runners with a competitive opportunity on the spectator lined streets of downtown Charlevoix in scenic northern Michigan. The Shay Mile is also the third stop part of the Bring Back the Mile Grand Prix Tour 2014.

Last year, Heather Kampf joined Jeff See and Daniel Clark as the only runners to win back-to-back Shay Mile titles. This year, Kampf, 27, returns with a chance to become the only three-time winner of this event. Thus far in 2014 Kampf has represented the United States twice at the highest levels of Track & Field competition. At the IAAF World Indoor Championships, held in Poland, Kampf reached the final of the 1500m race. In the Bahamas, site of the IAAF World Relay Championships, she helped the USA women to a second place finish in the 4x1500 meter relay. In between those two events, the Team USA Minnesota athlete also won the USA Road Mile Championship in Des Moines, Iowa.
