The growth of the sport of cross country at the prep level is inspirational. What is also inspirational is that, after 31 years, the FootLocker Cross Country series, still has resonance. It is the Horatio Alger story of championships, meaning, no matter what small town or school you are from, if you run well in one of the four regional championships, then, you can run in the Final! And, if you can keep your head during the final, and stay close to the front, and kick like a person possessed, you might have a chance!
Adam Goucher, Bob Kennedy, Suzy Hamilton, Todd Williams, Julia Stamps, Deena Kastor, Jorge and Ed Torres, Alan Webb all ran there. The race course in San Diego is hallowed ground, and the fans who watch the top runners will be enthralled by some tremendous racing!
My picks? Emily Sisson from Missouri looks good to me. Craig Lutz and Caty Flood, last weekend’s NXN champs, look good, and for teams, I say, Midwest rules! (My spoiler is Shane Moskowitz, from Washington, the Border Clash champ!)
We will twitter the races LIVE on Saturday!
