Quad XC Open 5k

Bryn Mawr Running Company proudly presents the 4th annual Quad XC Open 5k. The 5k race will take place on the challenging fields and trails at the Belmont Plateau in Fairmount Park. Our goal is to grow this race to become the largest cross country race in the Philadelphia area and to promote cross country beyond high school competition. Quad XC will also host the USATF Mid-Atantlic Cross Country Championships Race for the 2012 season.

There will be prize money for post collegiate athletes who place as an individual or on the winning team division. The course will consist of one outer loop around the baseball fields then into the woods for the remaining portion of the course. Course maps will be provided day of race.

Cash awards will be provided by the Bryn Mawr Racing Co. and Nike by the following breakdown for both male and female: 1st-$150, 2nd-$100, 3rd-$60, 4th-$40, 1st Masters- $100, 1st Team (male and female)-$250.
In addition, there will be overall age group prizes: 29 and under, 30-39, 40-49, 50-59, 60+
