Wetmore-Wednesday Top Races: Barringer and Nelson Take 2008 Beijing Games

BOULDER – The Colorado track and field and cross country program has a special history, one that began to hit full-stride under head coach Mark Wetmore.

CU track and field and cross country will take a look back at every year under Wetmore and recap the best races and teams of every calendar year.

Every four years (unless a global pandemic strikes), the world comes together and sends its best to compete at the Olympic Games. Since Wetmore arrived at Colorado, CU has seen an uptick in current and former Buffaloes competing on the international stage.
