Organiser's Description

The 2025 Mercury Mountainside Madness XC Invite will take place at Mountainside Middle School just north of Spokane, WA. It's a standard youth meet setup with a few exceptions, we've added a 6 and under 1K race and we've added a 3 member 3k relay (each team member runs a 1k course batons required) The athletic.net system doesn't allow athletes to register for more than one event so I will likely have team coaches email me their relay team(s) members via excel spreadsheet...more to come on details for the relay registration process.



Medals will be awarded to top 15 athletes in each age group race for both boys and girls.

Awards to the top team in each age group race with exception of the 1k race.

Awards to top 3 relay teams in both the 10 and under and 11-14 age groups.



The courses at Mountainside include both open grass and trails with one small section of asphalt (approximately 15 feet) athletes will cross as they leave and return to the grass playfields.

We hope you and your team will join us for this late season event as a tune up before your USATF association meet.

This meet is open to Youth Club Teams, Middle School Teams and unattached athletes ages 5-14.

The Open 5k race is for Highschool athletes and adults ages 14 and up.

Unattached Youth athletes will register here through RunSignUp Adult and High School athletes will register through RunSignUp as well.
