Cross Country DIVISION I MEN’S Highlights Wisconsin rolls to fi fth championship: Mohammed Ahmed had the green light, and it left competitors seeing nothing but red. Ahmed left the Badgers’ usual pack-racing plan -- as well as most of the fi eld -- in his dust and led Wisconsin to its fi fth national champion- ship November 21 at the 2011 NCAA championship meet in Terre Haute, Ind. Behind the junior’s fi fth-place fi nish, the Badgers tallied 97 points to claim their fi rst NCAA crown since 2005. Seniors Elliot Krause (17th place) and Ryan Collins (23rd) and junior Reed Connor (36th) joined Ahmed as All-Americans, while junior Maverick Darling crossed the line 46th in the 10-kilometer race. Wisconsin’s victory ended a two-year reign by Oklahoma St., which fi nished second with 139 points. “We’re national champions, you can’t be anything but happy,” Wisconsin head coach Mick Byrne said. “We had that target on our back all along being ranked No. 1 and we knew it was going to come down to a real tough battle, and that’s how it played out.” The Badgers had embraced a team mentality throughout the season, a strategy of running as a group that had kept them undefeated in each of the four meets in which they ran at full strength. They deviated from that plan in the championship race, but the result was precisely the same. Ahmed went to the front early and was 10th as the fi eld passed the 2-kilometer mark. He moved up to fi fth as the race hit the halfway point, but Arizona freshman Lawi Lalang and Iona senior Leonard Korir had already begun to pull away by the time the fi eld came to the 5K point. Still, Ahmed -- the reigning Big Ten Conference champion -- did what was necessary for the Badgers to claim the team title, remaining fi fth as the lead pack completed 8 kilometers. “Mick kind of let me go a little bit and said go run with those front guys,” Ahmed said. “That just says that he believes in me and I just took that opportunity and went after it.” With his fi nish in 29:06.07, Ahmed earned All-America honors for the third-consecutive season, becoming the 12th Wisconsin athlete to earn at least three All-America citations. Krause was strong as the Badgers’ No. 2 fi nisher in 29:41.6 and picked up All-America laurels for the fi rst time. Collins was an All-American for the second consecutive year, fi nishing in 29:52.2 for the Badgers after fi nishing 32nd while running at Virginia last season. “It feels like I’ve been here for fi ve (years), these guys have been tremendous,” said Collins, who joined the Badgers as a transfer this fall. “This is what I came here for. From day one this is all we’ve been talking about, to win the national championship. “To have fi ve guys run well on the same day is something rare, especially at this type of championship meet. It’s just amazing.” Connor clocked in at 30:08.6 to earn his fi rst All-America award after fi nishing 95th in his NCAA debut last season. The Badgers’ lineup was rounded out by Darling’s 46th-place fi nish, Drew Shields in 112th (30:53.3) and Michael Brice in 240th place (32:27.4). For Byrne, the title marks the culmination of 23 years of work invested as a head coach, including the last four in Madison. Byrne’s third appearance on the podium in four seasons as the Badgers’ mentor is certainly the most special. “It’s no secret that I left the comfort of New York to come here, I left my family behind,” Byrne said. “This win today is for my family. It’s also for the athletes and the university, but my family fi rst.” For the athletes, writing the latest chapter in the Badgers’ storied distance running history means joining some exclusive company with Wisconsin’s championship teams from 1982, 1985, 1988 and 2005. “This is for us, but it’s also for the next generation of Badgers, as well,” Ahmed said. “It’s exciting that the Badgers of the future will be look- ing back at our names for inspiration.” Lalang was the individual champion, fi nishing in 28:44.1. He crossed the line more than 13 seconds before runner-up Chris Derrick of Stanford. 2 DIVISION I MEN—RESULTS 2011 TEAM STANDINGS 1. *Wisconsin ....................................... 97 9.

Page 1 of 4 Olympic distance runners Galen Rupp, Dathan Ritzenhein team up to push each other Posted by mhester July 21, 2009 16:31PM Doug Beghtel, The OregonianAlberto Salazar (center) introduced (from left) Dathan Ritzenhein, Galen Rupp, Amy Yoder Begley, and Kara Goucher at a lunchtime ceremony at the Nike campus Tuesday for the Nike-sponsored athletes, who are headed to Europe to prepare for the IAAF World Championships in Berlin next month. Galen Rupp was doing workouts with professionals while he was still in high school, was part of a deep and talented pool runners at the University of Oregon, and became something like a kid brother to Olympians Adam and Kara Goucher. But perhaps never before has he been as perfectly paired as he is with his new training partner Dathan Ritzenhein, a 26-year-old two-time Olympian. They each possess the drive, work ethic and easy-going personalities -- plus enormous talents -- that seem to make them a well-suited match. Quite simply, they are good enough to push each other. "I'm real excited to have him here," Rupp said. "Whenever you have a group of guys like this, the best distance runners in the country, it raises expectations and you're always able to do a little more." When he talks of "the group," Rupp is also referring to the Jerry Schumacher-coached and Portland- based contingent that includes Matt Tegenkamp, Chris Solinsky and Evan Jager. All three of them are currently at altitude camp in Switzerland preparing for the IAAF World Championships, which begin Aug.

    The Complete History of Cross-Country Running from the Nineteenth Century to the Present Day Try Season - I.E

    BOOK REVIEW © by IAAF The Complete History 32:1/2; 163-167, 2017 of Cross-Country Running from the Nineteenth Century to the Present Day by Andrew Boyd Hutchinson New York: Carrel Books, 2018, 294, pp., ISBN: 978-1-63144-076-2 (print), 978-1-63144-077-9 (Ebook) hrough the 1980s, cross country run- ning was a fixed part of every serious T distance runner’s winter preparation and a place among the first three of the world cross country championships was sure to bring an athlete great prestige. The main reason for this was that many considered the champion- ships to be the most difficult race to win, even more difficult than an Olympic title. At major track events, the distance runners are sepa- rated into different races, i.e. 5000m, 10,000m, 3000m steeplechase and marathon, but in the absence of the short course races, introduced only in 1998, the cross country championships brought together all the world’s top runners in just one race. Thus, the competition was quite fierce. It’s no wonder, then, that numerous world cross country champions have won major championship medals or set world records and that several have gone on to Olympic gold: Alain Mimoun (marathon, 1956), Gaston Roel- (from 1903 until 1972) and in the early years of ants (steeplechase, 1964), Mohammed Gam- the IAAF World Cross Country Championships moudi (5000, 1968), Carlos Lopes (marathon, (since 1973). These includes flat grass surfac- 1984), John Ngugi (5000m, 1988), Khalid Skah es, which is usual today, as well as extensive (10,000m, 1992), Deratu Tulu (10,000, 1992 stretches of muddy ground, sometimes gravel and 2000), Kenenisa Bekele (10,000m, 2004 road, hilly passages and even obstacles, such and 2008) and Tirunesh Dibaba (10,000, 2008 as fences, tree trunks and bales of straw.
