Colonel Cross Country 3200m
The Colonel Cross Country 3200m is a community race held at Nicholls Farm in Thibodaux. This event is part of the broader Nicholls XC Invitational and serves as the opening race for a morning of university and high school competitions. Participants have the opportunity to stay and watch these subsequent races after completing their own event.
The event offers two distinct distances:
- 3200m
- 1k Free Kids Run (limited to ages 12 and under)
The 3200m course consists entirely of low mowed grass and sections of dirt road. Members of the Nicholls Track and Field team are stationed at key turns throughout the course to provide directions and support to participants. Following the race, refreshments are provided for the competitors.
Prizes are awarded to the top overall male and female finishers, as well as the top masters male and female finishers. If the total number of entries exceeds 50 participants, age group medals are also distributed. Special awards are available for Nicholls State University students, including the top male, female, and non-binary student finishers. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
