The greatest and most pure sport ever created. Cross Country is usually thought of as insane and people cannot wrap their minds around why we runners do it. The sport is also overshadowed by Football, which is also played in the Fall. It requires dedication, and unthinkable amounts of physical and mental strength. Pain is a normal part of an XC runners life, and sacrifice become second nature to them. If one puts their all into the sport, it can be the most gratifying experience ever lived through. The comradery gained from powering through the cold, rain, mud, dust, heat and whatever nature can throw at you tempers the bond between teamates and friends. XC runners are usually good people, exemplary students, and quite social as well. If you try in XC, it is impossible to lose. You run until you die, then you get up and keep going. I know all of this from experience, and I watched some of the most dedicated runners ever born reap the benefits of their blood, sweat,and tears. Cross Country is truly one of the greatest sports ever created.
"Our sport is your sport's punishment."
"Cross Country runners are among the purest, most admirable people to live."

A sport in its purest form. Unlike track, which is normally a race against the clock, cross country is all about beating the other runner. The only way to succeed in xc is to train harder, faster, and smarter than your rival. This is unlike many other sports that rely on mostly talent rather than training. A sport that should be respected the most, yet is probably respected the least.
I'm too big of a pussy, so I quit cross country and joined football.

Probably one of the most competitive sports out there. If you are really competitive about it and you lose a race you want to kick someone's teeth in. If you win you get incredibly cocky about it and piss people off on purpose

bitch shut up before I shut you up that cross country race was gay

the ultimate endurance sport. Its a 3.1 mile sprint across the worst trails possible. It takes brains to decide when to speed up, or hold back, also to execute a race plan. it takes the ultimate mental strength to continue. Do not knock on cross country until you have run the 3.1 miles in under 19 minutes.
cross country can be fun, as long as your attitude is good.

A sport usually overshadowed by football. One of the most hardest and grueling sports. Yes Cross Country is a sport, just because it doesnt involve a ball doesnt mean its a sport. You have to be physically fit and be able to have the mentality to run like a crazy mofo to participate. I tried football my freshman year and switched to cross country. trust me or any other person who has done cross country and football, cross country is more demanding and harder.
Cross Country: if it were any easier they'd call it football
