Are you saying that the world XC Championship isn´t the greatest race on earth just because it lack American runners?
No, I'm saying that because it lacks the very best runners in the world, of which Rupp is one. The last World XC championships, in March 2013, contained precisely zero medalists (men's or women's) from the 2012 Olympics. It's not just Rupp, it's everyone.
