NEW YORK (Reuters) - ta, who at the Rio Olympics became the first American in 108 years to win 1,500 meters gold, will enjoy another payoff for that triumphant run before competing at the Millrose Games on Saturday.

Centrowitz, who followed in his father Matt's running shoes to claim Olympic glory, will see his tattoo-averse dad, a champion in his day and longtime coach at American University, get tattooed before the Millrose Games at the New York Armory.
