Kick off the 2026 XC season in style with Columbus Running Company and Nike! Grab your friends and teammates and join us for the Arch City XC Festival on Saturday, July 25, 2026! This year's event will take place at Westerville North High School ( 950 County Line Rd, Westerville, OH 43081) . The day will start with the Open 2-Mile (Adults and High School Grades 9-12) at 8:00am . This will be followed by the Middle School 2-mile at 8:30am, and last but certainly not least, the Elementary 2-mile at 9:00am. All races will run with combined genders and finish inside the stadium, where spectators can watch from the stands!
High schoolers and middle schoolers: Create a team of 3 (or join a team that your friends have already set up within the registration process) to be eligible for team scoring and have a chance at winning random prizes! Random apparel prizes will be given to 3 members of two different teams registered in the HS/MS races.
All registration proceeds from this race will be used to help the Westerville North cross country and track programs!
Please note: if you are signing up for one of the elementary/middle/high school races, you should sign up to compete with the grade level you are going into this fall!
