What a weekend of running! Team USA for next month's World Cross Country Championships in Tallahassee is set, with Parker Wolfe and Weini Kelati your champs as Gracie Morris & Ethan Strand win too.  At BU, Josh Hoey obliterated the world indoor record in the 600 meters while Jane Hedengren crushed the NCAA record in the 5,000 in her first collegiate track race. Then on Sunday, John Korir bounced back from his Chicago disappointment to win the Valencia Marathon in a massive negative split, while Joyciline Jepkosgei outlasted Peres Jepchirchir in the first race ever with two women under 2:15 . Plus: Olympic triathlon champion Alex Yee ran 2:06 , number two Brit ever behind only Mo Farah.
