Running with the Wildcats

Ojai in the Fall. Crisp, cool weather. Perfect for a hot chocolate and a chance to be Running with the Wildcats..

Cross country season is coming to a close, and while only qualifiers are running at the state's season finale, you can join us for an unforgettable romp through the Villanova campus. Whether you're a seasoned trail runner or just looking for a novel course, you'll enjoy the challenge of our unique course.

Our scenic 3 mile XC course winds through the campus on 90% dirt, starting and finishing on the track. You'll run through Shady Glen then venture out to Archery Site where you dip into the Valley. Running past Deer Hallow will carry you through the valley to the challenging Resurrection Hill. The race concludes with a rolling 3rd mile to the finish on the track. No dogs or strollers will be allowed on the course for safety reasons.

Registration includes electronic timing, commemorative finisher medal and  t-shirt, and refreshing after race snacks.
