Track feels like theres a clear division between event groups. In XC everyone suffers together

XC is better because you don't have to wait around for your event(s) like you do in track. Also its more people and its always different

Oh yes you do have to wait. At least at big meets

I like track because it's a variety. Me personally, I am a sprinter so I choose track because it allows sprinting, distance, and field events.

I personally think the people who do xc are a lot nicer and it’s not as much of a pressure (in my experience) but I think track is more fun to run but its a lot more competitive and people are more rude

Rudeness is an expression of lack of intelligence. XC for me all the way!

@@nickvledderrudeness is an expression of you not being loved correctly, not being stupid. More competitive people are usually assholes to each other but they don’t mean it and are friends. Me and my friends always fuck with each other and if you’re not like that or not in those friend groups you’d think we’re assholes

Cross country in my opinion is more fun.

XC without a doubt

Cross country!!! XC all the way

Xc for sure! I fully agree with the family vibe. We get to suffer together as a family lol. And i’ve always been a distance kid so xc focuses on that which makes me love it even more

I am more of a distance runnier so I like XC more

I NEED TO SEE THE TREES

I only did track to train for cross country

Track. I personally find it easier to chase people down in track and your teammates are right there whereas in XC you're on your own for most of the race. Track also has more spectators.

XC because on the different courses there is always sooo much more to look at and because of that to me my legs don’t hurt as much during the race because my mind is making sure I don’t make a wrong turn and just looking around at the woods.

Training is the hardest part of XC while the actual race is more difficult for track

Wait, track isn't a team sport? Why am I carrying this baton?

He’s probably speaking from a distance perspective, where he rarely had relays corresponding to his usual distances. Most of the commonly run relays ( 4x1,4x2, 4x4) are sprint bound. Even the 4x8 is still more middle distance as opposed to Spencer’s 5-10k niche. Races like the 4x mile are limited to special relay carnival meetings.

Spencer was an 800 and 1500 guy through college, 5K 10K is recent stuff​@@auburnmann3630

@@auburnmann3630well, Spencer was definitely a middle distance athlete, considering he mostly ran the 1500, mile, 800, and 3k during his college career. The real reason he probably didn’t run many relays is because there is no real relay during college for distance runners, especially during the outdoor season

track needs more of a team element you right

XC FO LIFEEEE ❤. I never ran on a team before but loved cross! It was so much more rewarding to crush the competition with your best buddies. Track is so much more competitive and scary. It’s also a pain to wait for your event and stuff like that

Tbh I hated XC mod-season but rn I miss XC more than track😢

Cross country 😊

Xc is also more forgiving. Track is pretty hard to lose in if u aren’t feeling it or mess up a little. XC goes on for miles

CROSS COUNTRY

My first love is CC! In fact Local Legion, Foot Locker CC open West Region Race is coming in the fall!!! Open Division is calling you!

I am a sprinter so I like track as it has more variety, allowing sprinting, distance, and field events

I remember asking 2 of my friends who did both which they preferred and they disagreed, causing a debate on the bus as we were going to a meet lmao

I agree love both because they both have benefits

Friends ask me that all the time

Cross country for sure, but track meets are fun

I also enjoy meeting new people at XC

Cross country is an adventure 😂

If your team is good, cross. If you’re your whole team, track

Track is more “fun” and I do love being fit and in shape to run fast, but XC is definitely more fulfilling (especially because of the summer training leading up to it)

i think you make more new friends in xc

Cross country.

POV Me when someone asks why I do track and cross country

if i am graduating from HS with a 4:31 am i never ever getting a sub 4 mile

I’m team XC all the way!!!!!!!

I do both but track is better I think

I like Track more just because I feel like I’m more of a 1600m runner and that the 5k is just too long of a race for me. Although, cross country meets on top fr because they go by quick and are just a vibe overall tbh…going for 17:30 ish this season (sophomore)

Track for sure!

In the UK cross country is often a mud fest on very hilly courses. It’s way tougher than track. I get the impression your courses are firmer and flatter and not so dissimilar to running on a track.

The team aspect of XC is better, but I preferred the racing aspect of track more.

I personally think XC because you get a new course every meet unlike track where you always stare at red

Cross country feels organic. In the grass, on trails, actually going somewhere. Track is fun for the speed aspect of it but honestly running laps on a track feels super-artificial and boring. I preferred cross country for that reason.

Definitely Cross Country, it pushes me way harder and makes me a better athlete!!!
