In high school, Chris was a standout middle-distance athlete, excelling in the mile and 800m, as well as being all-state in cross country and competing on his high school Varsity swim team. In 2005, Chris graduated from Penn State University with a degree in journalism and statistics. During his four years on the Varsity Cross Country and track team, Chris won IC4A XC Championships, was All-Region twice in Outdoor Track and was a member of the school record-breaking Distance Medley Relay (Chris mile leg was clocked at 4:01).
