Domination

Galen Rupp started the year with an individual and team cross country championship. Then he won the 3k, 5k, and anchored the winning DMR indoors to lead Oregon to another national championship. Last night he won the 10k at NCAA Outdoor Nationals and topped it off tonight winning the 5k. Supposedly he stopped to put his shoe back on after it fell off.


He stopped and still won a national championship. That is called domination.

Oregon is also currently first in the team standings.

He's been mentored/coached by Alberto Salazar since his freshman year in high school and its really shown this year. I'm excited to see what he can do against the world as a pro.
