they're some of the best runners in high school right now but the way they are so complimentary and encouraging of all their teammates is so heartwarming
the video isn’t up yet, but i’m super eager to watch it. the quality of every single video is nuts. as a runner/aspiring videographer it’s super cool to see some of the best HS XC runners on the planet document there races and training. all while bringing those videos with the upmost quality. anyway, i’m super stoked to see what NPXC keeps on doing the rest of the season. keep killing it, and keep on bringing awesome videos to L&L!!!
Love all the videos! I ran for NP from 2009-2013 back when we weren't that great so it's amazing to see how far you've all carried the program and the NPHS name. Can't wait to see what you guys do at State and Running Lane
Watching you all train, compete, and cheer for each other is great. Live here in Rhode Island and have 2 HS XC and Track Runners, as well as, a Middle Schooler who is just starting out. The support in this sport for the first to the last member of the team is what makes it so special. Thank you for sharing your journey with us. Congrats on all you have worked so hard to accomplish so far and keep smiling!
I thought the Great Oak “dynasty” would be hard to match. Then you kids come along and make them look like JV runners Simply amazing. Keep up the good work & I look forward to seeing how you finish out the season. With 3 of your best returning, and Hector and Dev improving, next year could be even more unbelievable.
I ran this on the same day just a different group, and it’s still insane to me how you guys get these times. The course is difficult for me not gonna lie. But it’s such a fun course to run
Great strong start on WoodBridge Invite. Keep on breaking more national records in upcoming races, and go hard on the last lap as well as hill terrain. Not sure if the National Meet in Alabama going to have hills similar to NXN. The races are going to get harder, intense, rigorous, and competitive. Hopefully NXN returns next year.
How tall are you guys? How much does stride length play in cross country? It seems as if Colin has a long loping stride while you guys have quick cadence.
I’m from Alabama and I know what race y’all are running, it is a good pr course and is really fast, records have been set their so I’m excited to see what y’all can do, hopefully I’ll be their
Your channel is almost on Easton Allred's level for quality haha...some legit content, indeed! It's been fun following the team's progression and excited to see you guys put your top 6 all under 15 at state!
Just realized y’all aren’t allowed to wear spiked shoes for xc in California??? I was so curious why you didn’t wear dragonflys for the grass courses and this explains it. Dang.
Wow, very impressive and nice video!! Do you mind going over what supplements you guys use? Recently I am finding it challenging to get all of my nutrients in.
Glad you enjoyed, yeah for some reason we have always referred to the meets by the states they are in. When we raced meet of champions in terra haute we just referred to it as "Indiana" and when we raced the music city distance carnival we referred to it as "Tennessee".
@@nttttttttttpllll Raw 400 speed maybe not relevant in cross when you're already this dominant, but as soon as track season starts people will *probably* start talking about the path to each one of these guys breaking a 4-minute mile, and then everyone will care about 400m speed. Also, if they care *that* much, they can destroy relay records this year such as the 16:41 4x1600 which sounds pedestrian, or even Webb's DMR record which had avg 400s per leg of (61-61-61), (50.2), (58.3-58.3), (59.9-59.9-59.9-59.9). For reference there are tons of mid-pack high school kids who would struggle to break 60, and plenty of teams across the country where the top runner runs a 56 4x4 split. These guys all look a bit more smooth than HS Nico but ultimately they're not specializing for speed. The top 4 probably could put up a 3:28 4x4.
We've never raced an all out 400m but in workouts last track season we've hit as low as 54. Probably could be in near 51-52 in an all out 400m time trial.
@@LLexandleovloggs Thanks for the like and reply, this is really some elite stuff and it's the cause for a lot of excitement for stats geeks and crackpot blog writers like me, especially since the NCAA isn't particularly interesting yet this season. Since I've gone down this path, what are your views on taking shots at the high school relay records (4x1500, 4x1600, 4xMile, DMR) in the spring? People on message boards are talking about NXR / RL championship performances that will be historic, but even a 1-2-3-4-5 leaves us wondering... somehow. Turn in an absurd DMR or 4x1600 and you have something eternal. Enjoy good health and keep running fast
Great video, lemme suggest that for the intro you delete the mountain biking part because that fits in with the adventure category. Or give surfing and hiking/exploring their own category
I have fond memories running at state many many years ago at that course. I swallowed a bee at the beginning and got outkicked by a kid at the very very end which lost us 3rd place. Gotta kick through the chute boys!
I don’t know what you guys wanna share w/ everyone but I really wanna know... What do you two think is the most important part of running improvement aside from sleep 💤? Either an aspect of training or specific diet perhaps? Much appreciated 🙏
Def want to make a video about this sometime, but for now I would say performance is based off of a couple pillars. You must have good sleep every night (
In the state of california HIgh school runners are not allowed to run in spikes. It makes sense because their arent really any courses in cali where you could where spikes even if you were allowed. Too much dirt and concrete.

Insane how 2 years ago Nico was unmatched, and now there are 4 Nico’s on the same team
It’s crazy its all about not setting limits to your performance!
OKAY NICO TASSOS
they're some of the best runners in high school right now but the way they are so complimentary and encouraging of all their teammates is so heartwarming
Entering the world of XC. It’s crazy. I feel like the mutual suffering just leads to better bonds built between even the people of opposing teams.
Def a special connection forms when you’ve suffered and hurt together.

I was at this years race in small school varsity I enjoyed the course and watching the other races Congrats to your team You all did insanely well!
Thanks !
I watched you guys run and it was amazing, truly inspiring
Great video, guys! Your passion for running and filmmaking really comes through. Oh and that soundtrack (lol)!!
The music makes it !
Love watching the videos inspire me to run, work hard, and entertain me . Am a freshman also from California hoping to break 17 in the 5k soon
That's awesome! You got this !!
it was so nice of you guys to include videos from many spectators of the race! you should do that in the future because it turned out really well!
Yes, it's great because it allows us to capture more portions of the race and display a more realistic presentation of the race.
Congrats Gentlemen…. And Sam 🙂👍. You’ll definitely rock Alabama 🏃♀️🏃♂️🏃♂️🏃♂️🏃♂️🏃♂️

Good question Mark, I'm curious as well.
I (Leo) am 5’ 9” and lex is 5’ 9” and we don’t focus on cadence too much we try to let our natural running mechanics work for us.
I really wanna see a 1-5 at state that would be 🔥
I’m from Alabama and I know what race y’all are running, it is a good pr course and is really fast, records have been set their so I’m excited to see what y’all can do, hopefully I’ll be their
Epic, I’m glad it’s fast, we are beyond thrilled.
You guys should get Strava I would love to see how fast all you guys go on your runs 😂
We’ve seen Leo and Colin win, now we need a Lex or Aaron win. Lol.
You guys are so talented and the video quality is unreal

The alabama national meet is where my state course is!!!!
A few weeks later they break the previous national record and their personal bests by almost 30 seconds.
That was an awesome race...so happy for all of you! You work SO hard day in a day out!

Wow your team is basically like the Chino Hills basketball team a few years back, except without the crazy dad
Legends never die
It’s insane how you just run for less than 15 minutes and you’re done if that makes sense!
I though it was crazy too, dont limit yourself! Always strive to push harder and faster than you ever though you could.
Dap with the wise words of motivation
Y’all are amazing I’m grinding every day to be like y’all. What’s the name of the song in the intro?
Thank you ! The intro song is called “belly of the whale” by sn0wcrash. All the music in the video is by Sn0wcrash
What 5k times were you running as a freshman? Just wondering as a comparison to my times right now because I'm a freshman and I love running.
As a freshman me and Leo both ran around 15:40 at Woodward park, the same course as shown in the video.

What do you film these videos with?
A fujifilm Xt-4 for most
The running is filmed with a GoPro hero 9
Some of the race footage was sent in by subscribers.
You guys should do your weight training routine for xc and track. That’s something I’ve been looking for from experienced runners

Great race, how much elevation is clovis btw it looks pretty hilly.
What kind of shoes do u run in for track and cross country??
In cross country we run in the xc 5’s and in track we use the zoom victory’s or dragonflies
I had no idea California wasn't allowed to wear spikes!
WHAT WATER DO YALL DRINK?! AND CAN I HAVE SOME PLEASE 🧎♀️
WATER!! and a lot of it. We drink at least a gallon every day in order to maintain optimal hydration levels.
baes
Video starts immediately weather channel
Can they not wear spikes in cali or don't cause there so much concrete
Yeah it wouldn't help on most cali courses due to the concrete and hard dirt, and it is against the California rules.
Hair tutorial??? 😏😁😁
Have you guys ever ran in spikes I know it’s illegal in cali but do you think that’s gonna be a big transition or what
We have run in spikes for out of state xc meets in the past. It shouldn't be a shock or difficult transition at all, just slightly grippier feel.
What kind of recovery do you guys do? Both day-to-day and after a race, thanks!
we take a recovery powder as well as some sort of carbs. We make sure to drink a lot of water and get a ton of sleep.
If only my cross country team was this serious about the sport as they are
What year are all you guys? It’s crazy how insane your grouping is.
Great video! Subscribed!
Good work boys 🤝

We’re you guys wearing spikes?
Clean jerseys
Will you be competing at Mt Sac in sweepstakes?
Nope, we do not like that course so we wont be running at any time besides CIF prelims and Finals.
I’ll see if I like the course after I race it on Saturday.
Wait what do you mean you get to run in spikes out of State
In the state of california HIgh school runners are not allowed to run in spikes. It makes sense because their arent really any courses in cali where you could where spikes even if you were allowed. Too much dirt and concrete.
Aren’t y’all wearing Nike Victory 5 in the video
are u guys running mt. sac? it’s my least favorite personally
Only for cif prelims and finals, not the invitational.
In California you can't wear spikes??
What do you mean since it’s in Alabama we can wear spikes ?
Since we are not on a California course where spikes are outlawed, we will wear spikes
You guys should do a surfing video.
We definitely want to !
Nice
In California are you not allowed to wear spikes?
Nope it's against the state rules, and it wouldn't benefit us on these courses.
