About the Cross Country 3-Miler and Club Picnic
The course runs through Nottoway Park on a cross country layout, so expect grass, natural terrain, and the kind of footing that rewards trail shoes over road flats. The organizers describe it as fun but challenging, which in cross country terms usually means a few honest climbs and some uneven ground along the way.
This one doubles as the club's end-of-summer picnic, so the post-race scene is unhurried. Food and drinks are part of the event, and there is also a kids dash on the schedule. Non-runners are welcome to join the picnic side of things.
