call in sick, skip work, skip school, do what you can to attend this event! It's a SHOWCASE event for ISU to host. The BEST collegiate men and women runners in the nation will all be in Terre Haute this weekend. So come show your support for ISU being able to host this event.
It will be broadcast live on the ncaa site
http://www.ncaa.com/championships/cross-country-men/d1
lots of NCAA CC chatter at www.letsrun.com
meet starts at noon and I believe the men run 1st.
ISU's page for the meet

And if you're out on the course do NOT cut in front of the runners, otherwise "King" will have to expel you from the course!
a great way to end a great sports weekend all around at ISU

If your in the Haute on Monday and have a chance to go out and watch the meet I encourage you to attend. This is the last year we will host of a 9 year run, it moves to Louisville next year and it might be the last opportunity you have to check out a NCAA National Championship event in Terre Haute for a few years. It will no doubt be back in Terre Haute sooner rather than later. But you should still take the time to come check out this event - very cool!

again, a great meet, and it will be back in Terre Haute in 2013
Scott, I was happy that you didn't cut in front of any runners--at least you didn't in my section of the course. I'm still gathering reports from other marshalls and umpires, though.
