I'll be racing. I hope the course is dry (though it looks like rain the two days before). I saw pics from last year DIII nats, and that looked like no fun! |

I just graduated and this will be my first time running a club meet. What is it like? The field from last year looked pretty deep. How well would a guy who was around 80th at last years d1 national meet fair? I know it depends on conditions but is this meet as deep through the top 100 as d1 nationals? |

My guess is that you could be in the top twenty five, at least, at this meet. I don't think the field at the top is as tough as D1 nationals, but you'd get a lot more depth after 50th place. But it always depends on who shows up. |

quick off topic question....how do they select who runs at US nationals in Feb.? Can you run unnatached? |
| realfan144 |

|
Anyone with a USATF number can run and you can run unattached. |

Who is going to win? Smart money is on Adidas Transports |

Zap seems to be bringing a pretty good team and look to have a good shot at repeating. Though, from what I've heard Transports are bring a very solid squad and are a bit miffed by Adidas choosing Boulder Running Company over them for travel funding. I may be a bit biased, but WRRT should give some people a run for their money. |

Greater Boston Track Club is going with men's and women's open teams, one master male, and the ole coach, me in the 55-59 age group. I will be looking forward to seeing old friends. Tom |

Any other comments on the course? The description on the USATF website claims that it is flat. How is the footing? |
| depends |

It totally depends on the conditions. If the course is dry, it is flat, hard and fast as heck. If it is wet, well... take a look at DIII nats last year. 2005 d3 great lakes regional- won in 24:14. 2006 d3 nats, same course, won in 26:31. |
