Cross Country is an interesting sport believe it or not. Cross Country is a s sport in which runners compete the coarse over a open field. The events can be used through grass, mud, or woods. The sport is usally held during Winter or autumn. The Meets (games) take place at an open field. Most of the fields have a cretain box players go into for the run. All the runners on the team can fit in the box so it is very tight to start. The runners have to run around 100 meters to start. The sound of a gun or a horn sets off and the players are off to there run. The remaing 5-7 team players that remain go to the next round. They are to run however many miles are set for the race. Next the sound of the horn os gun is sounded off again and the remaining players are off. The coarse ends with a finish line. The coarse ends with a line located at the Chute or the funnel. A chute is a rope the players run through to single-file the players. Here is the ways on making the coarse. The runner is responsible for staying within a specific distance of the marked path. Courses may be marked using various methods, such as tape, chalk, ribbons, paint, cones, and flags.
