 Hello, welcome to the Day of Burdan show presented by Buffalo Wildlings. I'm Greg Royce, joined by Stevenson Cross Country head coach, Day of Burdan. And coach, you had your last sort of off weekend from competition on the training week and this week you head to the NCAA regional up at Dickinson. How do you feel going into that meet? I feel really, really good, really confident. It's what we've been training for the whole entire year and everything's been going great. I mean, two really good workouts last week and the, I mean, everybody's kind of at a level of fitness they've never been at before so it's exciting to see how it unfolds on Saturday. Yeah, um, you know, obviously coming off strong performance in Max, obviously, you know, Langston, Pat Watson on the men's side, kind of look about on the women's side, you know, I'll have a, you know, good chance of possibly qualifying as individuals if, you know, probably more so on the men's side if the men were, you know, didn't qualify as a team. Yes, so the men, I mean, I feel like we can finish this highest fifth and I mean, if everything goes perfect, I mean, it could maybe finish this highest fourth. So it's hard to tell. I mean, the top two teams automatically qualify and then there's a whole at-large process that looks at results throughout the last, last half of the season and how you compete it, how you compare it against teams from outer region and things like that. But, and then it's top seven individuals that are not on the teams that are going. So I really think Pat and Langston and Kelly all have a shot at qualifying as individuals as well. Yeah, so obviously we won't know the meets Saturday, we probably won't know unless they finish in that top seven, won't know probably until Sunday once that at-large process is completed, you know, whether it'll be going to Nationals. Yeah, I think the, I think the at-large process is supposed to be done on Sunday, Sunday afternoon at some point. So hopefully they just finished within the top seven in those top, with the top two teams and we don't have to look at that far. Yeah, make it a lot easier. Yeah. Certainly the weather for this weekend obviously it's a few days away, but you know, looks like it's going to be a little chillier than what we've had so far all fall. Yeah, so it looks like it's only going to be upper 30s, low 40s. So it's going to be chilly, but it's cross-country and you got to be ready for all the different types of weather. Yeah, absolutely. You know, it's, you know, the funny thing with fall sports is you start at 70, 80, maybe 90 degrees. And by the end of November, you know, it's chilly, you know, it's sort of snow, winds whipping. And like you said, that's kind of prime cross-country weather. You know, you don't want to be out there when it's 90, you've got to be out there when it's a little chilly. Yeah. No, I'm looking forward to it. I think both our teams will do well regardless of the weather, but I think cold is probably, like you said, better than hot. Absolutely. All right, coach, well, we wish you and your teams the best of luck on Saturday. Thank you. We'll talk to you next week. Hopefully with a couple of national qualifiers to talk about. For David Dan, I'm Greg Royce. This has been the David Dan Show.
