On Monday, October 28th, the Cross Country program will host a Festival of Races for our elementary kids! This race is 1 mile in length and is free of charge. We would love to have any and all elementary kids who have an interest in running or who would like to learn more about Cross Country join us! At 5:00 our varsity athletes will lead the elementary athletes through an optional short warm-up and a series of stretches. The first race will start at 5:30. How many races we have will depend on how many people register. We would like to have a race for each grade! The starting line will be right behind the bleachers of the Track and Field Stadium. The course will be marked, and middle school and HS athletes will be helping. Please let me know if you have any questions by posting them in the comments. Thank you!
