Interview with Michael Fout - NYRRPublished by
After winning the 2007 Foot Locker Midwest Cross Country Regional Championships meet in Kenosha, WI, on November 24, LaPorte (IN) High School senior Michael Fout is headed to San Diego, CA, to take on the best high school runners in the nation at the 2007 Foot Locker Cross Country National Championships on December 8. This spring Fout is also hoping to break Rudy Chapa’s Indiana high school state meet record of 8:55.10 in the 3200-meter run, set way back in 1975. Then it's on to college at Florida State, where the talented young man has committed because of his admiration for FSU head track coach Bob Braman's program.

Editor's Update: Michael Fout surprised many, but not Mensracing! He won the Foot Locker Cross Country National Championships in the quick time of 14:50, seven seconds ahead of second-place finisher Christopher Derrick. Read the full article at: www.nyrr.org
