Who had him winning NXN? Not me.

Who is he 😭😭😭😭
he was my dark horse to win!!
Looks like he peaked at the right time:
4th 15:32.7 Sep 1 Timpanogos Invitational-Morning
4th 13:57.8PR Sep 16 42nd Annual Woodbridge Cross Country Classic
1st 14:55.0 Sep 23 Bob Firman Invitational XC
1st 15:03.5 Sep 29 Region 6 XC Championships
1st 16:01.5 Oct 10 2023 Utah 3A-6A Divisionals
1st 14:58.3 Oct 24 UHSAA 5A State Championships
2nd 14:51.1 Nov 18 NXR Southwest Regional Championships
1st 15:16.5 Dec 2 NXN
He's fast, every year people sleep on the Utah scene. Like 8:44 3200 and 4:07 or something. So many Noonan stans swearing he would win, though JoJo beat him at bob Firman. Utah teams 1-2-9 from a state with 3 million residents.
People always sleep on these runners at altitude, not incredibly surprising one rose to the top
Rich Gonzalez and the NXN committee made a statement on their top 4 picks to win nationals in the early season: Jojo Jourdon, Clay Shively, Evan Noonan, Daniel Simmons
fastest runner this season. no one cares what milesplit/dyestat says. Jojo won the biggest race this year. He deserves #1
Definitely not me. I've been watching him all season. He's been the clear #2 all season in Utah. Simmons has been on a completely different level.
At NXR it looked like he was pushing Simmons. They were neck and neck with less than a mile to go, but he completely crushed JoJo. He gapped him by 10 seconds in no time.
I figured that even if Simmons had a bad day, surely there was someone filling the giant void between Simmons and Jourdon. These muddy, swampy races though. Crazy things happen.
anytime sub 9 kids are in 50-90th it is a crazy race. Totally unexpected.
The fact that he went sub-4 makes it all the less surprising that he won
1. His name is "JoJo" and no one will take him seriously because of that name.
2. He also doesn't know how to spell his own last name - Jordan does not have a "u" in it.
From the banks of the wide river, The Big Dog returns to speak wisdom gathered while sipping green tea in the straw structured tea huts.
I didn’t have him in the top 10
Actually, it’s spelled Jourdon. Usually it’s spelled Jordan.
So usually it’s “Jor” instead of “Jour” and “dan” instead of “don”.
Like Michael Jordan.

What is the most stupid running advice you've ever heard?🤣(It can be funny)
Are Asics, Saucony, and New Balance envious of Brooks, Hoka ,and On?
