Katherine Legge is ready make historic attempt to try and complete racing's 1,100-mile 'double'‎

Katherine Legge missed the Indianapolis 500 media day festivities Thursday because of a flight delay in New York. While Legge is trying to become the first female driver to attempt the one-day, two-race, 1,100-mile marathon known as the “double” on Sunday, her team has spent the past week fine-tuning her race-day plans while getting advice from the most recent driver to attempt the feat, Kyle Larson. “Hopefully, we get all of the travel woes out of the way now before the weekend, and this weekend goes smoothly,” Legge told The Associated Press on Thursday.
