What makes an XC champion? (Men)
“Steeplers almost
never win cross. Anybody know how many XC champs have also won the steeple?
Yuot did it in his nationals triple, but the steeple was more of a side project
for him than his actual race. I'd be curious to know who else has done it if
anyone has that info.” – ‘steeple champs’, on the D3 XC
Individual Contenders Letsrun thread
Below is a full listing of cross country national
champions. Primary track event was
determined by taking each runner’s top finish from track national
championships. All track championships
are outdoors unless otherwise noted.
Runners were national champions in their primary track event except
where their highest finish is otherwise noted parenthetically.
