Rupp Capped Sensational Senior Year In 2009
Nothing could stop Galen Rupp from making history at the 2009 NCAA Division I Outdoor Track & Field Championships in Fayetteville, Arkansas.
Mother Nature tried, sending thunderstorms that pushed Wednesday’s 5000-meter semifinals back to 12:40 am CT, more than three hours later than scheduled. That meant Rupp, as well as any other athletes attempting the 5K-10K double that year, would have to put 20K of racing in their legs over a two-day span from late Wednesday night to Friday night.
Rupp wasn’t concerned, having already completed the legendary 3K-5K-DMR triple at the NCAA Indoor Track & Field Championships just a few months earlier in the span of 24 hours.
