Hopefully didn't miss anyone too obvious! Let me know your thoughts on the squads
You have Ryan hall on Green Bay pack and New England tough mudders
ReplyDeleteGood catch, I believe the first one should be Ryan Hill, the next Ryan Hall but I'll double check my paper draft
DeleteWould have loved to see Craig Miller instead of Andrew Wheating. I think Craig is a much better long distance runner, but I honestly haven't looked it up. Etrain, tell me if I wrong. I probably am.
ReplyDeleteWhy did I question Etrain?
Haha you are actually quite right. Craig miller has run 7:49 for 3k and in the 13:30s for 5k to go along with his 3:35 PR at 1500m. We know he can run cross as well as from his high school achievements. Certainly you can make a very good argument for Craig (especially considering we are a PA board)
DeleteHere is why I went with Wheating. First of all he is a bigger name and the big names usually draw more of a crowd of fans. signed AI way passed his prime for that reason. Plus Wheatings potential is through the roof. He ran 3:30 for 1500m (still top 5 us ever) when he was fresh out of school. With varying length races me may be able to sneak up his range and surprise like a wade endress type. Just my thoughts but I agree with your point.
Andrew Colley, formerly of NC State, maybe? He doesn't have the track times some of these guys do, but he always seems to perform well in xc.

Never mind, totally missed him the first time I read it through.

New York and Portland are definitely the powerhouses
