medals galore
• free T-shirts to all coaches who complete the coaches’
race
• A race for all age and ability groups
THE COURSE:
The Canyon course is a challenging 3.0 and 2.1 mile run, with hills,
trails, and grass. The heart of the course is a hilly loop of trails
and trees -- the Canyon -- that makes up the last 1.1 mile of the race.
NEW FOR 2006 --
• The Middle School races are being lengthened to 1.5 miles. As
these races have become more popular, it is necessary to have a longer
race to spread out the field.
• The Junior Varsity Races are now scheduled after the varsity
races. Teams that enter JV squads without fielding a varsity squad will
be disqualified.
AWARDS:
Awards are listed on the schedule. Individual medals are handed out
in
the chute: team plaques are handed out at the awards presentation on
the track
immediately after the JV races
