Our Cross Country season takes place in the fall (August - December). The program teaches the fundamentals of long distance running, focusing on running form and building endurance. We compete in several cross country meets and road races locally through our the season. We host a Halloween Themed Cross Country meet on the third Saturday in October called the Monster Dash (10/18/25), our athletes run for free and we invite the general public to run the 5K. The club participes in both the USATF and AAU state cross country meets.

Practices are Monday and Wednesday Evenings at 6p in Veterans Park, time will be adjusted as needed for light throughout the season. We also host Saturday morning trail runs in Carolina Beach State Park, when we don't have a meet. Registration is $125 for the season. We do have a scholarship program available for those who need it.  First Practice will be on August 18
