Events and distances

  • 5K Rogue XC Community 5K

Team competition and scoring

Runners may enter individually or as part of a team. Teams of 5 to 7 runners compete for division titles. Scoring follows traditional cross country rules: the top five runners on each team score, and the 6th and 7th runners displace opposing runners. A team tie can be broken by the 6th runner; if both teams have only five runners, the place of the 5th runner breaks the tie. There are separate open and masters scoring for male, female, and co-ed divisions.

Registration and fees

Registration opens March 1, 2026, and closes September 25, 2026. The listed race fee for the Community 5K is $20. The Elementary Mile shows a nominal fee and is restricted to ages 5 to 12. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
