Danielle Siebert goes to races all the time. But she’s normally not the one racing.
On Oct. 27, the University of Maryland cross country and track coach plans to toe the starting line in Arlington with thousands of other runners at the Marine Corps Marathon.

Ignorance was bliss for Piper Dean in her first cross country race.
She took the line at the DCXC Invitational wearing trainers. On an extremely muddy course, that played a part in helping her finish second in the sophomore race, when other competitors’ spikes were working too well to dig into the much.
St. John’s College High School track coach Desmond Dunham chats about the DCXC Cross Country Invitational Sept. 28 and Joanna returns to talk about the one friend she made in Syracuse over the last year.

Race like the pros. That’s what high school runners have been able to do whenever they spike up at the Agricultural Farm Park in Derwood, Md. The Montgomery County-managed facility played host to the 2009 USATF Cross Country Championships, and it also led the composite scores of MoCo Running’s inaugural course ranking.
A collaboration between MoCo Running and RunWashington, this was vastly Kevin Milsted’s brainchild. We surveyed coaches from around the D.C. area and members of the All-RunWashington preseason teams. This gave us a solid and well-informed sample, many of whom were able to evaluate at least one of the nine courses that made the final.

For the sixth year, RunWashington’s coaches panel has chosen 62 of the most promising cross country runners in the Washington, D.C. area, naming them to our preseason honor teams.
The panel prized cross country achievements from last fall, but took into account improvement during the track season when selecting the teams. The top 10 boys and top 10 girls, regardless of geography, assemble the All-RunWashington team. Coaches also selected an additional team for Washington, D.C., Northern Virginia and Montgomery and Prince George’s counties in Maryland.
