It's just some John Dye fallacy that cross-country courses need to be uniform in length. Yeah, if cross-country courses were identical in length, it would be easier to compare times and rank elite runners. But that's not what cross-country is all about. Too many of you are taking stupid pills.
The fact this young lady can obliterate a fairly strong course record and yet have the performance minimized by a few idiots because the course doesn't meet their "standards" ... is idiotic at best. Saying "wait until track season" only comes across as being completely ignorant about the sport Madeline Perez competes in.
