Prepare for Steve Cram's usual hypocrisy re African's running under European countries' banners. He can't help himself...

Would be nice if they listed the teams for the finishers so we could have an idea of um I don't know...how the teams are placing.
Let's not get too greedy.
Good run by Siedel. American women got crushed. I hope the men can put up a better showing.
Enjoying the landscape shots between races.

Chmiel won in 14:10. Lane was 7th in 14:30.
Good, the 2nd best runner in NY beats Lane easily. We can put the Touhy VS Lane debate to bed now.
I would point out that California runners probably aren't in great form right now compared to New Yorkers, but 20 seconds is too big a margin to write off, considering Touhy put 30+ seconsds on Chmiel all year. Touhy is better than Lane. And that will bear out during the track season.
Aaaaaaaand, they're off? Exciting (:
USA!
Anyone know who the USA runner is with the 6-inch flattop at the back?
Griffiths is in this or no? Can't find the full startlist.

Why aren't California runners in great form compared to NYers? Northeastern runners have been dealing with tough weather and are lucky to have gotten consistent mileage for 2 weeks.
Begininng to stretch out. Heath, Korir, and Bor near the front.
This is a great XC course, nice terrain. Love the little streams.
Dunbar and Derrick lead the second group across the line, 5 seconds back.

Classic British commentary with Steve Cram taking the piss on Mechaal
Ozbilan the Turk is in a great hurry. Hasn't relinquished the lead for too long at any point.
