Nike Cross Nationals

This weekend Sioux Falls will be besieged with fans and competitors. NXN as it's often referred to will bring the best athletes from all corners of the Heartland to compete for a berth at the national event. It was announced on Tuesday that the regional competition will stay in Sioux Falls for at least the next three years. This announcement really helps distance running in the state by giving high school competitors some thing to look forward to in their state that is recognized on that national level. Make sure if you're around to make your way out to the meet. See you there!
