Pikeview/Concord University High School/Middle School Invitational

Friday October 8th 2021  

Pipestem State Park, Pipestem WV

Course Description: The course is deceivingly harder than it looks, mainly rolling hills, with long gradual grades you don’t really think are up hill until you run them.  There is one bigger hill on the course, but it’s only about 200 meters long. The course is 99% grass with three road crossings. The course will be open to run the day before the meet, all day.  I will be at the course at 3:30 for anyone who will want a map of the course the day before.  Maps will be available the morning of as well.

Entries: Email entries to coxm@concord.edu no later than Tuesday October 5th.  There will be unlimited entries per team.  Please let me know if you intend to run as soon as you can, this will give me an idea of how many teams we can expect.
