Cross Country is both an individual AND team sport. The participants train, compete and are scored as a team, but within that framework, runners focus on achieving their own personal goals as developed by their coaches. Throughout the exciting Cross Country season, runners train 5-6 days per week and participate in Bay League meets as well as invitationals held on picturesque trails and park grounds around Southern California.
