Morven Park
Provides an ideal setting for a marquee Cross Country course, with a variety of desired & essential elements. The grass fields are expertly manicured, with surrounding picturesque wooded landscape and intentionally designed natural pathways. Morven's XC course also features an honest balance of hills to challenge runners and complimentary downhill and flat stretches for recovery, creating a productive flow through. Wide open fields and connected loops afford spectators a direct connection, in multiple areas, to cheer on runners as they test early season conditioning. Simultaneously, coaches can reach various points to evaluate their runners' form, fitness, and competitive instincts!

The goal of this event isn't just to create another early season invitational, but rather to present cross country in a new way. In addition to a spectator friendly course, and races that take place in the late afternoon and early evening, runners can expect food trucks, music and a unique festival like environment out on the course. We'll also be hosting an open race for any parents, coaches, or friends who want to experience the magic of cross country racing for themselves.
