But your first point, which you limit to only a specific part of CA, applies to many kids, not just Californians. That’s my point. Jane Hendegren, for example, doesn’t have extensive experience racing in cold, wet conditions because it doesn’t rain that much in Utah during XC season (certainly much less than it rains in SoCal during the same period). Californians are not singular in suffering from the conditions. The weather alone does not explain their miserable results in the girls’ race.
stop it
Today in Provo, UT where Jane is from the high is 43F and the low 26F
Today in Ventura, CA where Sadie is from the high is 75F and the low is 49F
be real, this isn't just about rain, it's about how cold the body is relative to what it's used to
Hey look at that, Herriman just completely bombed. They have no experience whatsoever racing in wet and muddy conditions. Maybe the conditions do impact others than just Californians.
Buchanan California 3rd!!!! so proud congrats girls
only team that was able to challenge southwest teams today - SW go 1-2-4. all that talk about how california runners can't run in the mud well look at this!!
California had 6 runners in the top 50. Southwest had 15 (Colorado had 12, Utah had 3).
Noonan gets 5th puts all the other Cali kids to sleep. He’s the best in the nation, after one of the roughest starts to the season, and a Cali person running great under horrible conditions.
