Good luck to everyone who has a race this week 💪

I love how transparent you are: "I almost came in last place." Just more proof of the old adage never give up. And you did a root cause analysis and concluded it was you 😮. Who does this 😮!

That episode of you making NCAA’s as a team is by far your best video. Timeless

Running my first XC race on Saturday here in the UK at 53, 3 years into running - propping up the tail-end of our club's team most likely. If I can get round in sub-40 I'll be happy!

IT's going to be a mud-fest as senior men go out last of all!

I go to Penn State, so it's fun to see the clips on the PSU course. Loved hearing this story, and the message at the end.

[Deekajane]

Thank you for sharing this story. This is your best video yet. That piece about finding the story line is so key in any circumstance where you are rebuilding or coming back from a set back.

[bcrruns]

I thought I wasn’t going to like this but your story telling is good. Not to mention I watched the videos of the first time you ran those races.

This was absolutely inspiring. Almost my whole close family has gone to Georgetown, and to have someone from the university I know and love talk about the sport I want to go far in was amazing. Go Hoyas! If I work super hard, maybe I can be in your place one day.

1000% XC is relentless! No course is ever the same. But, when it gets into your blood you're chasing it as long as you can! Thanks Spencer!!

Will always remember when you posted your race at LeHigh in 2019. That race was crazy. Sucks I was a year behind from racing you in college at Lehigh

[Dunbar]

I love it when run an 18:06 5k In XC one week and then a 20:47 the next week

[DanielEarlester]

At least it didn't get so bad that the team bus left for the meet without you.

[Uneedabread]

so real! some of my best cross country races were followed up with the worst races of my life!

[Leeroy]

NCAA D1 XC is almost as competitive as world junior champs probably. Running a 30:11 on terrain like this is really really ... really strong :).

[bbnsaints]

I think that regionals video might’ve been the first video of yours I ever watched

[nick]

I didn’t know you ran at hall or in that state I’m in nh and we go against them sometimes and they have been crazy in the past

[joshuasmith]

The course at 3:51 ... where I do the majority of my miles. Just did a couple out there tonight. Holla!

[mr.latebloomer]

7:03 the clown music had me dead 😂 glad you learned to laugh at yourself Spencer some people take themselves too seriously

[brianchabot]

Sad looking Gucci sock…it served its purpose.😢
