NEW!! Registration form for 2010 Manhattan Cross Country Club (youth running) PDF file | Word file Club Overview and Frequently Asked Questions The Manhattan Cross Country Club was formed in Fall, 2004 to
encourage age-appropriate distance running for youth as a means to
lifetime fitness and health. Fifteen youth in grades 6-8
participated the first season, and the numbers grew to 36 youth in
grades 3-8 in the second year. (AT RIGHT: Club shirt for 2010) The Club's guiding philosophy is to promote good sportsmanship, respect for teammates and self, and a positive attitude toward self-improvement, confidence-building and goal-setting. The Club is non-profit. Youth pay a $10 membership fee, which includes the opportunity to run in several meets from early September through mid-October. Each membership is valid for a year (usually beginning each August), including the opportunity to participate in such non-season events as weekly Group Runs, a New Years Day Fun Run and other fitness activities.
Though based in Manhattan, Kan., the club is open to all youth in grades 8 and under, regardless of where they live. The Club is governed by a Board of Directors and President, and is a member of the Road Runners Clubs of America.
