How early are teams planning on heading to Boulder for Champies? It
seems like a really big advantage for Mamabird, even more than just a
regular home team. I remember when the Big 12 cross country
championships were in Boulder and the Buffaloes ended up winning with
17 points which, if you know cross country, is ridiculous. What are
teams doing to prepare?

What, you mean your team didn't all chip in to get one of these:

Doesn't look like there's enough room in there to see how the pressure
difference affects your throws, unfortunately.

17 points really isn't that big of a win in a cross country meet,
certainly not ridiculous. I would say most big meets that are within
10 points would be close races. However I don't know the history of
the results in the Big 12 conference..

Read John F.'s post closer. It says "...with 17 points...'
The best possible score is 15 points. To score 17 points, your 5th
man can't be worse than 7th overall.

Hector is constipated with ideas... just needs some motivation to
flush them out.

You are on crack.

17 points mean you placed the #1, #2, and #3 finishers, along with
either the 5th and 6th or 4th and 7th placed runners. That's total
domination.

Considering the lowest (and best) possible score is 15... That's like
saying "a 15-1 win in regional finals isn't that big of a win".

Crack. Kills.

Beat a dead horse???

And about training low and living high or whatever they said in
blog... Anthony Gonzalez, when he played football for Ohio State,
would sleep in a hyperbaric chamber at night as did Lance Armstrong at
least near the end of his dominance...
That is one way to train low and live high
