USATF JUNIOR OLYMPIC
CROSS COUNTRY
NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIPS
December 8th
Pioneer Park Lincoln, Nebraska
USA Track & Field's Junior Olympic series doesn't end with the track and field
championships each summer. We also offer a full cross-country program in all five
age divisions.
Here are the age divisions and distances:
Bantam (born 1991 and above) - 3 Kilometers
Midget (1989-1990) - 3 Kilometers
Youth (1987-1988) - 4 Kilometers
Intermediate (1985-1986) - 5 Kilometers
Young Men/Women (1983-1984) - 5 Kilometers
The progression is the same as for track and field. USATF's Junior Olympic cross
country program is made up of preliminary meets in many of our 57 local Associations,
which lead to their Association Championships, and then to 16 Regional Championships.
Thousands participate and the group narrows to the "best of the best" at
the National Championships each December.
More than 2,500 athletes will brave the elements December 8 at Pioneer's Park in
Lincoln, NE - all in pursuit of Junior Olympic gold!
