Gold at the World Championships, Silver at the Olympic Games, multiple medals at global meets, many-time USA National Champion, and VERY recently crowned 2004 Olympic Gold Medalist Adam Nelson is still considering running in the Bay Area Cross Challenge on January 13th, 2013 in Golden Gate Park. With all those prestigious accomplishments, surely Adam Nelson will have no trouble dispatching the competition.... oh wait...

What's that?

He does what?

He's a SHOTPUTTER?!

That's right ladies and gentlemen.

(Imagine that intensity on the trails...)
