A smiling Coach, Ben Rosario was beaming after the 2015 USATF Club Cross Country Champs last December 11, 2015. Hosted by the Pacific Association of USATF, in San Francisco’s Golden Gate Park, nearly 1200 athletes, from masters to seniors to open, competed over 6k to 10k. And compete they did.
But it was HOKA ONE ONE’s Northern Arizona Elite that we salute here. Ben Rosario, a fine runner in his own rite, has hand picked a fine team of long and middle distance runners to help them challenge their dreams. Rosario’s enthusiasm is, well, infectious.
His athletes made a spectacular premiere in Golden Gate Park. The Northern Arizona Elite won the women’s individual race and also the men’s team race. It is the men’s team that we salute here, but we salute all members of the HOKA ONE ONE Northern Arizona Elite team!
And just a note: watch the HOKA ONE ONE Northern Arizona Elite next weekend in Los Angeles at the 2016 U.S. Olympic Marathon Trials.
