Meet Information
WE HAVE REACHED OUR LIMIT OF ATHLETES FOR THIS MEET. We cannot accept anymore registrations at this time
Thank you for your interest in attending our second meet held on the beautiful campus of Holy Cross. The course is a wonderful 3.1 mile course that starts out in an open field and enters a wooded area then back out and up to the convent and back to the main filed. It is a looped course where the athlete will run it twice and peel away from entering the woods a 3rd time to finish back out in the open on the open field. The course has approximately 95ft of ascent and 145ft of decent. The races will be timed by Montgomery County Road running Club and the results will be uploaded to this site. Bring your Juniors and Seniors to get their times!
The meet will be held at the Academy of the Holy Cross.
