Other Notes
The Cross-Country course consists of 2 equal 1.55 mile loops and is relatively easy to follow. Each loop includes a ½ mile trail through the woods, with the remainder of the loop around the park. The course is mostly dirt and grass but it includes some asphalt.
Note: Guys who cannot break 30 minutes should run the MS race. (Girls should use their best judgment.)
