Some XC commits making it official today:

The thing that stood out to me about Hendengren

Nov 26, 3:10pm

Not a lot of tall distance runners though, right?

Joe Banks

Nov 26, 3:16pm

No. You may be right.

Nov 26, 3:23pm

There's thought to be a sweet spot where the extra mass from being tall doesn't

ryebrye

Hedengren is in her own league. That 5k time would get college interest for boys

TailgateU

Nov 26, 9:24pm

Um, uh, that would have been 132nd in the boys race.

Joe Banks

Nov 26, 9:28pm

Nationally. They're are more than 132 male XC recruits every year. I coach HS

TailgateU

Nov 26, 9:37pm

Legacy names there. Can't wait to get my son to carry on the name. So many of my

Uno Doctoro

Nov 26, 3:10pm

Is your son dos doctoro?

thirdgencoug

Nov 26, 6:22pm

No, be he's fast. 11:15 min 2 mile as a 12 year old. More important is his work

Uno Doctoro

Nov 26, 6:30pm

Does he understand the value of zone 2 running? Is he getting any input on training?

CrimWalCoug

Nov 26, 6:33pm

No, he is doing this all on his own. I don't remind him, he just goes. I didn't

Uno Doctoro

Nov 26, 6:47pm

A little bit of education could go a long way for him and his training. I’m not the guy for that.

CrimWalCoug

Nov 26, 7:49pm

There are several top shelf HS track coaches in Utah County who would doubtless

Uno Doctoro was an elite runner. I'm sure his son is getting plenty of great coaching.

HarlemCoug

Nov 26, 9:16pm

You know me? Elite is hardly how I would describe my past.

Uno Doctoro

Nov 26, 10:19pm

You kept Scam Rising on the bench for a while though.

thirdgencoug

Nov 26, 10:36pm

That made me chuckle out loud. Bravo sir!

babycarrot

Nov 26, 11:55pm

Good advice I heard is 30mpw as a 9th grader, 40 in 10th, 50 in 11th, 60 in 12th

Joe Banks

Nov 26, 9:20pm

Wow, I ran heck of a lot more than that in HS. After my frosh year, 70-80 mpw in

Uno Doctoro

Nov 26, 10:42pm

Not getting injured is a genetic talent, IMO. You apparently won that lottery.

Joe Banks

Nov 26, 10:48pm

Not once, ever, outside of a sprained ankle running up rock canyon..who thought

Uno Doctoro

Hedengren set the HS national record on Saturday. 15:50

cougfanblue

Nov 26, 3:11pm

Doesn’t she already hold the 3200 mtr record and she is about 1 second off

Nov 26, 3:28pm

Jane is top 10 all-time for high school girls in the 1 Mile and 2 Mile. Still has her Senior year to keep climbing.

CrimWalCoug

Nov 26, 4:19pm

Saw Jane run at a meet once. It was fun seeing a bunch of kids, presumably some were siblings,

Joe Banks

Nov 26, 3:17pm

Dang, a 9:45 3200M 4:34 1600M. That's good for a lot of HS boys.

fredy

Nov 26, 3:39pm

Her cross country national record was in Mesa, AZ.

cougfanblue

Nov 26, 3:54pm

Here are more details on where she ran different times.

CrimWalCoug

Nov 26, 4:09pm

Hedengren and Macchia are really nice additions. Jane is obviously very fast

TripleCrownCoug

Nov 26, 4:23pm

She strikes me as someone who will do much better in Cross-Country than Track.

CrimWalCoug

Nov 26, 4:37pm

She is deceptively fast:) Her 1500 PR is 4:16 as a JR so she is ok on the track

TripleCrownCoug

Nov 26, 4:51pm

She was trying to break the other girl with the surges. That last surge

fredy

Nov 26, 4:44pm

WOW. Didn't realize our #1 East Coast recruit takes a backseat to one of our instate gals.

SinkingQuffa

Nov 26, 4:39pm

Next year’s class should include Lily Alder and Macy Wingard (should both be top five recruits).

CrimWalCoug

Nov 26, 5:24pm

Is Wingard LDS?

SinkingQuffa

Nov 26, 5:31pm

97% sure she is.

CrimWalCoug

Nov 26, 6:28pm

Those girls are stupid fast... wow...

HarlemCoug

Nov 26, 5:50pm

4:41 Mile?! Holy smokies.

Here is a video talking about Jane Hedengren. Start at about the 1:50 mark.

Blue Coat

She is unreal. Gonna be the greatest distance runner BYU has ever seen.
