Co-Ed Cross Country
The goal of Cross Country Club at Flagstaff Academy is to foster the development of runners regardless of experience. Middle School is a great place to learn, enjoy, and benefit from any physical activity. Cross Country is different from other sports in that it is for building endurance, mentally and physically for long distances. Practices start out with a mile of running and move into longer distances to train for Invitationals which are 2 miles or just over. Students have to want to run to be an effective part of a team.
*Transportation will NOT be provided for the meets this season. Families will need to transport their athletes to all meets (carpooling with other families is suggested.)
The Cross Country Schedule is not finalized yet - In progress and will be updated before the season starts.
Registration Information
Registration information will be coming soon for the 26/27 school year.
How to Register
- We are preparing the registration process and will update this website in early August.
Practice Schedule
Practices are on Monday, Wednesday, and Thursday from 3:30 - 4:30 p.m. Please be aware that we do run off campus for practices. Coaches are with students but not always able to have full line of sight with all athletes at all times.
Athletes must attend practice with:
- Appropriate active clothing
- Good running shoes
- A water bottle plus electrolyte replacement is highly recommended.
- A watch with a timer for practices (recommended)
- Proper nutritious meals daily
Siblings may not attend practices or wait on school grounds unattended. Families are to drop off and pick up siblings during normal driveline times or arrange for Dragon Flight care.
