  • The D1 NCAA Cross Country Championships is one of the most sought-out titles to go after in a person's running career. While most teams/individuals that win are nothing but a relatively expected outcome, one year brought out the biggest upsets in the sport's history.

    Really nice video! I am always happy to hear that fantastic narration voice when you upload. As a recreational runner, I can only imagine what these athletes are going through to prepare for these races and those crazy finishes! Thanks for the good content my dude!

    As someone who has raced at laVern, a kick at the end feels impossible. Seeing a sprint like that after all of the twists and hills, is insane.

    The one thing I hate about people putting up "all time" this or that is they only look at recent years and are not students of history. I think a great upset was Craig Virgin winning in 1975, he set a new course record , defeated the defending national champion and became the first NCAA champion in Illinois cross country history to win a race of this magnitude............

    "How volatile, brutal, and incredibly sportlike xc can be..." super true, next week is Nebraska HS and I am apart of the smallest class of schools yet it matches this statement perfectly xc is crazy on all levels.

    Thank You for pronouncing Terre Haute correct.
    I spent 5 years in college there and I swear people outside of Indiana/Illinois never pronounce it correct.
