The first thing Anton Harrsen noticed about Kristian Jensen was his curly hair.
Jensen was standing on the track getting ready to run when Harrsen met him for the first time. They were both starting their first year at Aarhus University where they would be roommates and training partners.
"The coach told me about Anton and said that he had run some nice times and we would probably tag along," said Jensen. "I had no idea who he was. I had never heard of him. He had never heard of me."
One year later, the Denmark natives are "inseparable" and have made their way to Philadelphia where they are making a name for themselves on Temple's cross country team.
