The 118th Millrose Games, the world’s most storied indoor track and field meet, will take place on Sunday, February 1st, 2026. Every event will feature top-level competition among Olympians, global medalists, and rising stars, and the NYRR Women’s Wanamaker Mile is no exception. Three-time Wanamaker champion Elle St. Pierre will make her return to the track, while Jess Hull, Nikki Hiltz, Dorcus Ewoi, and Sinclaire Johnson are among those who are looking to knock her off the top of the podium.

The Nike Track & Field Center at The Armory will be the venue for the 118th Millrose Games.

Elle St. Pierre has won this event in 2020, 2022, and 2024, setting the American Record in the mile on two of those occasions. Her mark of 4:16.41 in 2024 stands as the current record and the third-fastest time in history. She is a two-time Olympic finalist in the 1500m, and the reigning World Indoor Champion in the 3000m. St. Pierre had her second child this year, and the Millrose Games will mark her return to the track.

“I’m really looking forward to being back at the Millrose games,” said St. Pierre. “It’s a great opportunity to race with some of the world’s best runners, and it’s been a special meet for me over the years.”

Jess Hull is the reigning Olympic silver medalist and World Championship bronze medalist in the 1500m. She is the fifth-fastest woman ever over that distance, and she holds nine Australian Records on the track both indoors and outdoors. Hull will be looking for her first Millrose victory after finishing second in this event in 2024 and fourth in the 3000m this past year.

Nikki Hiltz is the second-fastest American ever in both the 1500m and mile outdoors. Hiltz has dominated the national circuit in recent years, winning eight consecutive US Championships across the 1500m, mile, and 3000m. A 2024 Olympic finalist, Hiltz recorded their best finish to date at a global championship this year, placing fifth at the World Championships.

Dorcus Ewoi was the surprise silver medalist at this year’s World Championships, taking nearly five seconds off of her personal best in the final. The former Campbell University standout will be looking to prove that her performance was no fluke, racing against several of the women who she defeated in Tokyo.

Sinclaire Johnson is a former US Champion in the 1500m, and she is the American Record holder in the outdoor mile. She is a three-time World Championships qualifier, reaching the final on two of those occasions.
