Mitchell Briggs and his wife Kristi Rush-Briggs pose for a pictures. The husband and wife steeplechasers will both be competing at the NCAA track and field championships this weekend in Eugene, Oregon.
They call them Mr. and Mrs. Steeplechase.
“Well, honey, let’s just go out and run 3,000 meters and hop over some propped up lumber before dinner.”
That’s the life of what may be the first married couple to compete in the NCAA national track and field championships in the same event. It happens this week in Eugene, Oregon.
