Welcome to the Cheverus Cross Country Website! If you are an incoming freshman or new to the program, please contact Coach Denari at denari@cheverus.org. We welcome runners of all abilities and experience levels.
This past season, we had a very successful season! Both our girls team and our boys team advanced to the Class A State Championships (the girls did so for the 8th consecutive season)!
During the summer, we host optional training runs both at Cheverus and other sites throughout the greater Portland area. Runners are strongly encouraged to participate. Our full schedule for the summer training runs is posted. Click the Calendar tab for more information.
Runners are also encouraged to participate in a weekly 5K race series called the Back Cove Series. This is open to the public: parents and siblings are welcome to register as well! The series consists of a 5K around Back Cove each Wednesday evening. It is just $40 for the whole summer. This is a great way to track your progress as the cross country season approaches.
