They'll be some randos looking for TV time fronting first half... Then valby will push and there will be a chase pack of about 10... Then tuohy and McCabe and mercy and maybe a few more will go for the win in final K... It will be quite a battle... I think tuohy takes it with a strong last k by 3 seconds...
Valby will run away and Chelangat and Mccabe will follow. NC State and Oklahoma State will pack run but the home town girls will finish stronger. Howell is a crazy finisher.

apparently she did not finish well at Big 10 championship finishing 23rd...the regional finish was strong but 20:03 on that course is nothing special, and as someone correctly observed the OSU ladies were pretty much jogging at 20:12
Oregon's Cooper Teare is a two-time NCAA Champion and in the 2021 NCAA men's division I cross country championship, he crawled to his finish. Teare was OK af...

What is the rationale for OK state and NC State pack running ... but not Alabama?
can someone provide a little clarity on the hills at Stillwater....where are the hills in the loop? Is the last hill the hardest....I watched the 2020 race, but the coverage was terrible....didn't really give a good indication of the hills (steepness and length).

I have it broken down in a different thread, I’ll try and find it.

There is a decent steep hill at about 1400/1500 repeated at 4400/4500. A smaller climb at about 2K/5K. A long less steep climb at about 2500/5500 and an extra hill on 2nd loop (on the inside) at about 3500 (similar to hill at 1400/2500).

Thinking is Alabama will likely not make the podium, so there 1-3 will not be holding back, with Chelangat putting distance on the other two. They still could sneak onto the podium anyway, depending on circumstances.

Is there an elevation profile?
This is old but compare this prior map to current and you will get an idea
