WHAT IS NXN?
The Nike Cross Nationals is comprised of 8 Regional Qualifying meets and the National Finals in Portland. Following in the tradition of European cross country meets, the Nationals event will again feature a multiple loop race course with man-made obstacles built on the inside of the horse race track at Portland Meadows in Oregon. Spectators can enjoy a continuous live view of the race from the venue’s enclosed 3,000-seat grandstand, and a live webcast feed of the event will run on nikecrossnationals.com.
Fields of 22 seven-person clubs and an additional 45 individuals (male and female) will lay it all on the line in the quest for the sport's biggest prize, the coveted Winged Goddess of Victory statue.
SO WHAT’S NEW THIS YEAR?
- This year we are taking seven runners and two chaperones instead of eight runners and one chaperone. This will eliminate the eighth traveling runner and provide stronger support for each club.
- The great state of Wyoming has moved from the Southwest Region to the Northwest Region.
