FINAL INSTRUCTIONS - will be posted here on Friday, Nov 15
The Last Chance XC Championships is the perfect opportunity to PR on the fastest 5k course in New Jersey: Oak Ridge Park. With a double-loop, pancake flat course, cheering crowds, loud music, oversized medals, personalized bibs, and free action pictures, runners will have no choice but to PR.
There will be three team champions crowned: boys (3/team), girls (3/team), and co-ed (4/team: 2 boys, 2 girls). Times, not places, will determine team results, Schools that enter more than three runners will be assigned teams based on finish times (top 3 = A Team, Next 3 = B Team, etc).
Since November 16 is the last day of the NJSIAA cross country season, this is a sanctioned high school event by the NFHS. No clubs or unattached runners are allowed in the high school 5k races.
