Join us for the MRC Winter Track Showcase at Wesleyan University on SATURDAY JANUARY 17, 2026!

In MRC fashion, the meet is free for youth under the age of 18 and we've kept the cost low for adults as well - $15. You may compete in as many events as you'd like. While the meet is free for youth, PLEASE do not register unless you are planning to attend; we have very limited capacity compared to our summer meets.

Please note: THIS EVENT IS NOT DESIGNED TO SUPPORT WALKERS; PARTICIPANTS ARE EXPECTED TO RUN EACH EVENT. Speed does not matter, but we discourage participants from entering solely with the intention of walking.

PLEASE REGISTER BASED ON AGE. IF YOU ARE 16, REGISTER AS YOUTH - YOU WILL STILL RUN WITH THE ADULTS IF YOU CHOOSE. For the purposes of competition, youth is anyone from 8th grade and under, while "adult" is high school and above. For example: a 16 year-old registers as a youth, but competes in the adult races.
- There are no separate non-binary races; run with the division of your choosing.

The meet will start at 2:00 p.m. sharp with the girls 1-Mile run
This is a track-only event (no jumps or throws) featuring the following events, in order:

1-Mile
60 meters
1,000 meters
200 meters
600 meters
3,000 meters

Events will be contested youngest to oldest, girls first followed by boys, women, men. We may combine heats and genders in distance events.
For the purposes of competition, youth is anyone from 8th grade and under, while "adult" is high school and above.

Results will be posted within 24-48 hours after the meet.
