Nike Speed coaches were on hand to
provide training tips during the main event along with Chicago
athletes Corey Patterson, Moises Alou and Greg Maddux
"We chose to find Chicago's Fastest Teen because speed is a concept
that translates across all sports. Athletes are constantly working
to get faster, and we wanted Chicago teens to realize they are
faster than they think," says Andrea Fairchild, Nike Inc. "The
Showdown was all about achieving your personal best, while
benefiting from the life lessons learned through sports."
Mendenhall will have bragging rights as Chicago's fastest, and at
the same will be reinforced by the far-reaching benefits of staying
healthy and active.
