What is Cross Country?
What is Cross Country?
Cross country is a sport where teams or individuals compete in long-distance outdoor runs. At the middle school level in our district, each of the district’s 5 middle schools compete against one another on a 1.5-mile course at Merrill Park. During the season, each school runs against one another once. The season culminates with the Meet of Champions where the top 10 runners from each school compete for a district championship and individual awards.
