    • "It's going to hurt..."

      Last night I was able to spend some time and interview Rebecca. In her first interview since returning home from Amman, we covered a wide array of topics including the World XC Championships, her coaching, the 2009 season so far and what to expect the rest of the year.

She talks about the experience, things she learned, and of course the race itself.

    • Patience is a Virtue

      The changes in Rebecca's running were obvious every time I watched her workout. She seemed to adapt and get stronger with every passing interval. It was an impressive feat. The closest comparison I can make is Penn State's 1994 XC team my freshman year. We finished 8th at the NCAA Championships. I think I was 17th or 19th man on that team, so I had plenty of opportunity to learn and take in all the knowledge and experience that was being passed down from the leaders of the team. But the thing ...
