Meet Information

9th Annual Cougar Clash Cross Country Invitational

Hosted by Pulaski County

LOCATION: Randolph Park, 5100 Alexander Road, Dublin, VA 24084.

This park is the jewel of Pulaski County parks and recreation. It has ample parking and is conveniently located less than 1 mile from Exit 98 off of Interstate 81.

COURSE: This is a brand new spike friendly 5,000-meter course that is entirely within the bounds of scenic Randolph Park. It is not flat, but it is faster than most courses. It has only a few inclines and they are mostly gradual grades with only a few sharper and shorter inclines. These are generally offset by some rather long and gradual downhill sections. The course is very spectator friendly. The surface is almost entirely grass or cinder gravel path.
