Summer Cross Country Series

Special pre- and post-race appearance by Kathrine Switzer and Roger Robinson.

Runners will enter their Predicted Time for a double loop 3 mile course. No watches may be worn during the race. The runners who come closest to their Predicted Time will win.

Teams of two run three alternating one-mile loops around the fields of the Park. Start/Finish and check-in by the Dog Park/Paddle courts. Entry fee $15 per team.

Runners will race a 5km course, and their performances will be scored using the WAMA Age Graded Performance Tables. Runners with the highest scores will win.

The field will be split in half, with each group running a Figure 8 course in the opposite direction, crossing paths at three points prior to the finish.

Runners will start on a staggered basis, slowest to fastest. Please come with your best time for 3 miles.

Teams of three runners cover legs of 1, 3 and 2 km. Register individually in advance - teams will sign in race night beginning at 6 PM.

Women get 4 shortcuts over the course of the race.

Finish down a path lighted by candles in white paper bags (the traditional Mexican holiday luminaria). To benefit the Jenny Crain Make It Happen fund (suggested donation $10)
