New runners are lucky to see flotrack post races in a reasonable time instead of the days when flotrack would post a race like this in 2026

@theveggie5733 6 ай бұрын

It’ll be reposted then without a date or repost in the title so everyone will think it’s new

@kevinkasp 6 ай бұрын

The announcer says Flagstaff, Arizona is the "new" destination for running. NAU has won the National Cross Country Championship six of the last eight years, so maybe not quite so new.

God that pacer who took them through in 2:26 was seeing god out there. I think I heard the announcer say he had already raced the 8? If so a 2:26 k after an 8 is no small feat itself

Sahlman to me as a Brit looks the most talented out of the younger talents coming out of the US. He has speed. He appears to look like with consistency in a strong set up he’s top drawer. Maybe worlds in 2025? Other views?

Amazing times, but don’t forget that that track is so bouncy and it really affects times, most likely it helps 4-5 sec per mile if not more.

Flagstaff's in the mountains, dude. Granted, the desert isn't far away, but Flag sits at 7,000 feet and averages over 100" of snow annually. Geography matters. .
