Accuweather predicts very little rain for the week preceding.
NCAA Day of race temps are 35F and mostly cloudy.
Should be a barn burner under good conditions and the course is dry.
Anyone know the course conditions as of now?

I haven't been out there recently but they had the big NTN qualifier there on Saturday. Weather was pretty good last week and Saturday it was nice so I doubt they tore it up too bad. The people up there know what they are doing and will get it in the best shape possible, hopefully that forecast sticks. It's about time to have a real fast national meet out there. Two years ago was a good chance but that became a "tactical" race with everyone going through 5k in 14:54 or so.
I wouldn't start looking at the weather forcasts until Friday or Saturday. And really, this time of year in the midwest, you won't know what it is going to be like until Monday morning.
Not sure where you're getting the 35 degree forecast. Looks like a little rain early in the week, and then decent weather on into Monday. But...it is the Midwest in November--who knows, it could be snowing by Monday.
Since the Indiana HS XC Championships the course has apparently dried-it was soft and wet for the state meet. Most of the Indiana kids that ran in the state meet and NTN this weekend were 30 seconds faster for 5 Km than just two weeks ago.
