Hey, XC athletes and coaches!

Spike Night is back and better than ever! We can’t wait to get you all geared up for the upcoming cross country season.
In addition to super deals on trainers, spikes, and gear, this event will challenge athletes (and coaches) in a series of games of strength, dexterity, and creativity!

Individuals and teams that excel in each challenge will be rewarded handsomely with prizes provided by New Balance, Adidas, Puma, ChickenLegs &  Bull City Running Co.!


Spike Night Tests of Guts, Grit, and Glory:

Plank-off:In this battle of grit, all participants will hold a plank for as long as possible, trying to outlast their competitors to be the last one standing. A glorious, long-standing Spike Night Tradition!

Coach Caricature Challenge:Teams from each school will have one hour to create a “rough sketch” of their coach.

Cornhole Tournament of Champions: Pair up with your teammates to test your precision, depth perception, and fine motor skills with America’s favorite lawn game!

4×4 Popsicle Relay: Test the speed of your legs, your perseverance in the face of brain freeze, and the tenacity of your stomach when we put a new spin on the ever-popular 4×4 relay by throwing icy-cold popsicles into the mix!
