it seems that 15-20% of the race is on surfaces like a track and roads, and that's not xc enough. when crossing the track or roads there needs to be something more natural. I've seen sandboxes made to cover paved areas before. I've even seen plywood hills (like at the World Cross Country Championships in America in '84). When at the track the route should have been on the infield not on the track. There's a lot that can be done to avoid running on paved areas.
I did enjoy the races though. Great job.
its a tough thing to deal with at cheverus. the school isn't downtown but its in the middle of the city. you have to get creative with the course otherwise you'd have to travel a ways to get on something the would be considered an "xc course". i know they're looking into some things though so maybe next time we'll have some new scenary!

How about running a race in the mountains at Jackson Hole Wyoming. Is that cross country enough. Trails, Crossing creeks and even climbing a short little hill.
