Thursday Night: 5:00pm at John Hunt Cross Country Park
Cutoff Times & Seeding
Seed times can be submitted from January of 2023 and can be edited by event staff up to registration closing for the event.
For this meet we do have cutoff times for entry to ensure the meet moves smoothly and in a quick fashion. Seed times will be what divides heats. Heat sizes and numbers will depend on number of entries. If you are in a state that runs 1500m, 1600m or 3000m please make a reasonable conversion to the mile and 3200m. The final two heats of the night will be the championship heats. Seed time is what qualifies you for those heats in addition to a couple of select invites with previous success at RunningLane Cross Country Championship and track accolades. There is no exact time that qualifies you for specific heats.
