New for 2026: Mapleton Moonlight XC Classic

Were launching a night invitational the first weekend of the season for both HS and MS runners: Saturday night, August 29, 2026. Tentative  race schedule would be:

MS Boys - 8:30

MS Girls - 9:00

HS Boys - 9:30

HS Girls - 10:15

Along with the fun and energy of our Fall Classic, were exploring:

  • Fireworks

  • Cookies for individual and team winners (plus complimentary chocolate milk)

  • Complimentary glow sticks

Course notes: for those whove raced with us before, we plan to utilize the block we call The Mountie Mile. The course will pass through the stadium multiple times (including the finish): the 2-mile will enter twice and the 5K three times.

If youd like to join us for the Moonlight XC Classic, reply to reserve your spot.  Please let me know if you have any questions regarding either the Fall Classic or the Moonlight Classic. 

Once again, thank you for racing with us. Best of luck with the rest of your seasons-we look forward to seeing you in 2026!

All the best,

Joe Ortiz
