Organiser's Description
Join us for a community 2 mile cross country run/walk taking place at Glacier Creek Middle School as a part of the annual 2025 Evan Kratochwill Memorial Invitational hosted by Middleton High School. The races are put on by Middleton High School XC in honor of Evan Kratochwill, who passed away tragically in the fall of 2021. Evan was a former student at GCMS and at MHS, as well as a team member of the Middleton Cross Country team.
The two mile cross country run/walk will take place at 7:45 am on Saturday, October 4, 2025. We will have an awards ceremony for the community race. That will take place near 8:25.
