Event Description

After conversations at meets this past weekend, and Dave Marrington’s desire to step away from producing a JV meet the day after the District One meet, we are planning races on Saturday afternoon, October 26, 2024.

The meet will take place on a two-loop course that is a modified version of the course used for the old John Sharp Viking Invitational.

the course is fairly flat with a challenging little down hill -uphill rise you will experience twice, Should the weather be wet there may even be water at the bottom. course starts and finishes in Northampton Township and runs in and out of Tyler State Park. The improvement is that the course will not run along Richboro-Newtown Road. The Park will instead cut a course that will run along the tree line in that same field.

The races will be USATF sanctioned and we will follow USATF rules.

The proposed schedule would be:

                OPEN RACE: 3:45PM

                HIGH SCHOOL AGED GIRLS RACE: 4:30PM

                HIGH SCHOOL AGED BOYS: 5:15PM
