One of the nice things about Colorado's NXR-SW and FLMW situation is if things don't turn out at the first meet, you can still show up at the second and take another whack at it as Megan Mooney will be doing in Wisconsin this weekend. Photo by Alan Versaw.

The weather is supposed is supposed to be... umm, late fall, early winter climes are expected to be normal with the University of Wisconsin-Parkside National Course to be saturated from recent snow and rain. The expected high should reach 40 degrees by game time. 

No. 3 ranked Judy Pendergast already has one previously Rohrer-owned record under her belt, but she faces a lot more competition at the Foot Locker Midwest Regional

Two of the pre-meet favorites did not disappoint the seeded race form charts... nor did the wintry weather at the National Cross Country course near the University of Wisconsin-Parkside campus. Getting the all expense paid trip to San Diego for the national championship went according to plan for the majority of the players.

Saturday November 28th was supposed to be a smooth transition of cross country to the heads of state in track & field... little did we know, it was quite a long morning stretched into the afternoon that felt like a marathon of coverage amid cold climes that featured wind, snow flurries, and other nasty elements associated with late November cross country weather. The Midwest Footlocker Cross Country Regional hosted by the University of Wisconsin-Parkside ended with some spectacular performances

Werner joined Anna Rohrer as the second girl to break 17 minutes at Parkside.
