Ok lets get ONE thing straight! Distance OWNS fo sho!

I like track better, but xc is more fun because of like the guy before me said "the closeness of the team". That is SO true my friend.

Favorite event is a tie between the 800 and 1600.

800- 1:54.91

1600- 4:25

Answer 4

the 1600m (mile) because i do it and i got a 5:13 this year and im a 14 yr old boy ;)and the 1600m (mile) realy my teams best time was 4:04

i dont have a favorite, theyre both great and require lost of guts and endurance

Answer 5

i like track my favorite event is the mile i am 12 so my best is a 6:30

Answer 6

track and xc are both pretty fun plus distance is the best i think. well xc and track are both fun but if had a choice to do one all year long i would choose xc cause its so fun racing and running at practace cause when your done you feel like youve accomplished something great. as for track my favorite event it the 2mile im not a strong miler so i choose the 2 mile.

Answer 7

400m&800m are my favorite races. [I'm a freshman btw]

They're so much fun to run.  And they're the only races I feel good in [not necessarily meaning I do good, I just feel amazing].  I get the adrenaline rush and it's fast paced.  I love the feeling of the last kick.  I love the upbeat tempo of running the race.  And I just feel like I'm gliding.  My 800 PR: 2:46 (frosh) 400 PR: 72 (6th grade)

I like xc better because of the interesting terrain but it's a lot harder on my bones. Injuries come a lot quicker.  But it feels more free running on trails.  I love hills too.  They're the most fun of practice.  Hill repeats.  I can do them forever.  XC is a family too.  My team was only 10 people.  No one wants to attempt it.  And the most of the sprinters on my team are jerks and they hate long distance runners [I don't know why, the ones on my team are so nice!].  I love xc<3

I used to be a sprinter.  This year was my first year of long distance. :]

Answer 8

track&field, the sprints are more exciting than long distance.

my favorite events are the 4x100 relay, 100 m, 200 m.

Answer 9

i am 13 and my fav event is the mile because i always feel great after i run it. i also like it because there is a lot of space to improve i  used to run a 7:58 mile now i run a 6:58 mile. i only run track because thats  all my school has but we leave school on our runs. I would prefer to do xc if it were an option.

Answer 10

mile 5:00.... idk never done xc so track i guess

Answer 11

i actually like track better and i am a distance runner used to be a mile 2 mile guy but now i am a 400 200 with the 4x400. my favorite event is definately the 4x400 its the most intense race it has a mix of distance and speed and the relay just makes it so much more fun to race and exciting to watch.

Answer 12

XC = Closer team chemistry, quicker meets, though those 3 milers are a pain in the @ss.

Track = Better meets, though it goes longer, there are cooler          events such as 800 (freshman 2:16 WSC, IL).
