There have technically been a couple meets this season already but we consider this weekend, the first big weekend, as the true opening weekend for VA's XC season.
Here are the top 500 finishers for 5K from this past weekend. Nearly every meet in the state shortened or cancelled their races because of the heat. Most of these courses were also not of the "fast" variety.
Your one stop location for all the coverage and results for this weekend.
The 2016 XC season has started off moderately with a few big stories here and there. This is all going to change though next weekend 9/10 as nearly the entire state laces up their spikes and takes to many XC courses. The action this weekend will include Newport News, Knights Crossing, Monroe Parker, Judges Classic, Becky Selfe, FUMA, and Pole Green XC Classic. Needless to say it is going to be a big one.
