Why Join & What to Expect?

The beauty of cross country, and distance running in general, is that it accommodates all skill levels. We work hard to keep training fun. We keep the mileage low and focus on the importance of hard work and doing one’s best. We want to enable each runner to become competitive in their own realm – setting realistic, achievable goals – and working hard to accomplish those goals. Not everyone is going to win – but that’s not what cross country is about – it’s about individual effort towards individual goals. When everyone works hard on their own – winning as a team takes care of itself.

This is not a sport that provides instant gratification; rather it rewards hard work, patience and perseverance. The great thing about running is that the very qualities needed to be successful are the same qualities needed to succeed in life.
