Championship week

It's championship week -- the biggest in D2-land -- but you wouldn't exactly know it by reading this blog. (Blame it on a verrrrrry slow innanet connection over Thanksgiving.) Here's what I've got in mind for coverage:

• The Favorites: I'll break down men's and women's teams into three categories: Title contenders, Elite Eight and The Field.
• The Personalities: I'll profile a few of the more interesting individual runners in this year's field -- and not necessarily the favorites.
• The Race: Any last-minute race info and (nearly) immediate post-race analysis.

The fun starts Saturday morning!
