Like many of you, I recently came across the 1998 NCAA Cross Country Champs video here on the forum. Good stuff. Seeing the video (and the runners in it) prompted me to upload footage we filmed and edited nearly twenty(!) years ago...
I remember the 2002 Men's Cross Country Championships was an amazing race to watch, as it was a four man battle between the late David Kimani, the 2001 champ Boaz Cheboiyo, the 2001 runner up Torres, and Cragg. Back in the early oughts, my college teammates and I had dreams of creating a FloTrack of sorts, but sadly RunnerMedia never materialized. All we have to show for it are the video clips below, so enjoy!

In the coming days (if there is enough interest and I can get around to it), I will upload similar coverage of the 2001 NCAA Cross Country Champs (Furman University), though the video quality (like 2002) is much to be desired.
