Not a ton of entries posted in the 10k men's and women's open races at this juncture. Hopefully the fields fill out in the next couple days. For the most part the armed forces' athletes seem to be signed up in their entirety but not many other professionals.
Below are just the names I recognized from the 52 women and 76 men confirmed:
Sarah Pease Oiselle
Natosha Rogers
Paige Stoner Reebok Boston Track Club
Emmanuel Bor NIKE / U.S. Army
Hillary Bor U.S. Army
Michael Jordan NIKE / U.S. Army
Lawi Lalang NIKE / U.S. Army
Anthony Rotich NIKE / U.S. Army
David Salas

Editor's note: We changed the name of the thread. It was initially entitled "USA XC champs are this weekend in San Diego 1/18/20"
Let me get this straight: the OP started a perfectly legitimate thread, but you felt the need to change the name of it to make a d*ckish point? Got it.

The "Editor" should have the guts to identify him/her self when changing the title of a thread, especially when the title changes the meaning of OPs post.

Ummmm... you didnt talk about the race.
At all.
No news article.
It's clear what you find interesting about this race.
The lady doth protest too much, methinks.
Where is the journalism?
Do you need a fvking play by play of the race?

Yes, like every other sport in the world provides, I would like a breakdown of events.

There will be 100000 articles after the NFC/AFC championship.

There were a 100000 articles after LSU/CLEM.

There are 100s of articles after my local team wins the state championship.

That’s called journalism.

If letsrun doesn’t care enough to break it down, why would pros take the time to run it? Hence, where this race stands...

That's all you wrote covering this championship.
Notice that the professional commentators never used the phrase "Kenyan Americans."
We get it. We've gotten it.
No wonder many of these athletes refuse your interviews at the world championships.
You couldn't even talk about the race. You couldn't EVEN talk about the race!
Expect to be snubbed at the Olympic Trials and in Tokyo. I wouldn't give you the time of day either.
What are you talking about? Yes, on the home page I referred to the Kenyan-Americans going 1-2-3. What's wrong with that??
You act like I don't like Rotich or something.
The reality of the matter is I'm a big fan of Anthony Rotich. I'm driving the fan club and asking others to jump on board. I am the only journalist who really bothered to get pumped by his USA 5k road win in NY, wrote an article about his coach thinks he can medal in the Olympics and have publicly placed a bet saying he'll make the US Olympic team.
Yet you think I don't like him and he should boycott doing interviews with me simply because I pointed out he was born in Kenya? That's crazy.
I'm the leader of ghis fan club and you are basically saying I'm a hater. I get it - it's the year 2020 - and everyone wants to be offended for some reason and act like everything every white male does is either racist, sexist or homophobic but in this case you look like a fool for playing that card.
In case you missed my article from November, here it is.

I literally was coming to this thread to gloat about Rotich and was stunned to see some post ripping into me.

Rojo playing the victim card again. How surprising. The fact that you call yourself a journalist is a joke. Everybody sees you for what you are except yourself.
