10:30 at the intramural fields. Drag your butts out of bed and watch the nation's #1 runner in action.

Let me emphasize this point again. Sam is the fastest collegiate runner in the United States of America. 23 minutes of your time isn't too much to ask!

Go LU!

I saw the course maps for the men's and women's races...looks like that near field with the finish straight is going to be a good place to watch from

I so wish this had been last weekend while I was in town.

Let me reiterate what 01 is stating, Sam is the real deal and this is a rare chance to see him run on campus in an event that he will likely destroy.

I had no idea the school was consulting Medic and his MSPaint skills. He did a decent job with it.

Yes! Awesome. Saw a guy at Hardees today with that shirt, and his cell phone ring tone was the theme song.

I come home from work to see 10 responses to a cross country thread...and then I read the posts. Oh, well.

(Not knocking The Office, mind you. The rabies awareness run is my favorite episode.)
