Description

The Massachusetts Middle School Virtual Cross Country Challenge is part of the six state New England Middle School Virtual Cross Country Challenge Series. Race against runners in your home state and then take on the top middle school runners from New England. 

We realize that statewide, in-person competitions are not going to happen in the fall of 2020. We also realize that every cross country course is different.

So, in an effort to create a statewide competition that is on equal footing, we are happy to announce the 2020 Massachusetts Middle School Virtual Cross Country Challenge.

This race is open to all middle school aged athletes in Massachusetts, including public schools, private schools, parochial schools, prep schools, charter schools and home school. If you are between fifth and eighth grade from Massachusetts, you are eligible!

Does your school not have a cross country program? No problem, you can participate. Are you a soccer player and have never run a cross country race? No problem, test your endurance with either the short course or long course race. Up for a bigger challenge? Try both distances! 

NEW FOR 2020: 2 Cross Country Distance Options

  • Short Course distance is 1 Mile.
  • Long Course distance is 2 Miles.

You can race either distance or challenge yourself to both distances!

$5 from each participant's registration will be donated to USATF-New England Youth Programs
