Grassroots Running Series #3 2026

The race.

Welcome to the Third GrassRoots Runnings Series. Hosted by CHS Cross Country Parent Association and the Hybrid Runner Foundation, this series is a community focused racing opportunity designed to promote running, build the local running community, and provide athletes with a chance to compete during the summer.

Races will be held on a grass cross country course at Smith Intermediate, offering a fast layout with moderate elevation changes. This provides a great introduction to cross country racing for younger athletes while still being competitive for experienced runners.

The event includes multiple divisions:

Elementary (1 mile) Middle School High School Masters (community runners)
