Appleseeds Cross Country is a competitive cross country racing team. Our team is open to kids going into Kindergarten all the way through 12th grade. We compete in several meets throughout the course of the season, which are outlined below. Appleseeds welcomes kids from all schools in the area as well as kids who are homeschooled. 

We have 3 age groups: elementary school, middle school, and high school. Elementary athletes will race 1 mile, middle schoolers will race 3k, and high schoolers will race 5k. 

The race schedules will differ between age groups. Please make sure you register for the appropriate level based on your child's age. The grades are denoted in parentheses next to the name of the level. 

We will practice Monday and Wednesday evenings beginning August 12th through October 2nd. Please note: we will be practicing at Kreager Park on Mondays and Buckner Park on Wednesdays.  

Feel free to reach out to Club Director, Lynn Marbach, with any questions at Lynn@3riversrunning.com.
