Every team has a what if but man Perrin bombed over the last half of the race for CU. He was definitely on the inside of the second pack around halfway, just behind Sareel and Dressel and Klecker. Had he stayed with them and run around where he was all year, that's 60-70 points and CU is on the podium, maybe second.
What makes you so sure that didn't already happen and we ended up with just this?
Anyway. If you believe there's a big market need and pain, open one up.
To big for XC. He started the name calling. While hiding.
Individual results anywhere?
if you're going to charge for a service, you better be able to deliver that service.
I'm no flotrack hater, I think they do a lot of cool stuff. That said, there's no excuse for widespread service interruptions when you're covering a major sporting event. This is THE event for the sport, and they screwed it up big time.

I'm not at all. Bear in mind I've done exactly no research on the situation.
Maybe I'll go next year and run around the course with my iPhone and Stream it on Facebook. I'm sure some of you guys will watch. I'll just ask for gas money donations.

Wetmore let his teams down.
Awful peaking job.
Wetmore? Look at Providence. 3rd ranked team finished 13th with their highest finisher at 55th! All this talk of Treacy being some sort of Women's cross country genius.
Full men's results (team and individual):
and full women's results:

I had no interruptions until well after the Men's race was over.
The cart feed would get choppy here and there, but overall it wasn't a problem. You were able to see exactly what was going on at all times, especially late in both races with the breaks.

What happened to Stanford's Thomas Ratcliffe
This?
I am not a flotrack hater, but the coverage did suck - especially for what they charge - and especially given that, had it been good a lot of people, including me would be willing to pay nearly what they're charging. If they improved only the race camera I'd be willing to stick around for a year. But this is too many events in which that component, which is critically important in covering a XC race, was off the charts bad.
Is it really that hard to get quality streaming from an on course camera?? I'm asking seriously, but I can't believe that it is, given that others have done a pretty good job of it in big city marathons with tall buildings for like 35 years now....
Did Ratcliffe and Ostberg not run for Stanford today?
Too. Back to college for you!
Welcome to Stanford. You'll use an entire season of eligibility for one race!
should have just made a new account w/ a new email address
Nicolas Monanez (in 9th) has a 5000m PR of 14:39!!!!!

Northern Arizona does xc fast. Run across hill and dale.
Southern Arizona does biathlon fast. Swim across Rio Grande, then run away from Border Patrol, while carrying a satchel of prime Sinaloa powder.
Nice try, Rio Grande doesn't border Arizona.
