He also qualified for the NJCAA Marathon Championships. Christianson earned NJCAA All-America honors in the indoor 3,000 meters in 2000. He also was an Academic All-American in 2000 prior to earning an associate’s degree in history.

Christianson graduated from Charles City High School where he earned seven varsity letters in cross country, basketball, and track. He helped CCHS qualify for the state meet for the first time in school history in 1997 before helping his 4x800-meter relay team qualify for the state meet as a senior in 1998.

Christianson is currently working toward a degree in physical education.
