XC Experience
About this race
Gather your friends to run/walk the R-S Central High School Cross Country course. This two-lap course features mostly packed dirt or grass trails and has some paved sections. Runners start the race on the north end zone of the football field and head into the woods where they will wind their way through a canopy of foliage and fields until they return to the stadium for a finish on a beautiful track. This is a great 5k for runners, joggers, and walkers alike. Spectators will also love it because they will get to see and cheer you on multiple times throughout the race.
Ready to test your limits? The XC Experience brings a highly anticipated 5K to Rutherfordton on September 19, 2026. Expect a fantastic route right in the heart of North Carolina.
