About this race

Whether you run for a team, as an individual, or you just want to try out the experience of running a cross country race, you are welcome to join us for the 2025 Elevated XC Showdown! Boys/Girls will run in combined races, and will be separated by age groups below.  All courses utilize the same start/finish area. The 2k is entirely on grass, while the 3k/4k are a mixture of grass and hard packed gravel with a couple short crossings over asphalt (1-lane road). All courses are flat and VERY spectator friendly. See course maps below. 

This will be a USATF sanctioned event (membership not required to participate).
