Newhall
Park NIKE INVITE, Concord CA
This
is the Newhall Park course configuration for the NIKE Invitational
and the DFAL League Championships. Overall, terrain and race times
suggest this course is comparable to the State Meet course in Woodward
Park. The starting line is located on the south east soccer field.
The course is mostly flat gravel trail, some grass sections, with
one significant hill about 1400m into the race, followed by a steep
descent at the 2000m mark. From then on it's a track meet to the
finish.

the terain is identical to the Adidas course, the start and finish
lines are located in the center of the park on the grass behind
the "dog park." The course is mostly flat gravel trail,
some grass sections, with one significant hill about 1000m into
the race, followed by a steep descent at the 1500m mark. The second
and third miles are essentially on the same loop.

Hidden
Valley Park, Martinez CA
The
home course for the College Park Falcons, Hidden Valley Park is
also the site of the Ed Sias Invitational and the DFAL Championships
(every other year). Moderately hilly, with only a few areas of truly
level terrain, the course is mostly dirt trail with one 800m section
of pavement and both the start and finish on grass. The uphill start
bottlenecks around a tree at 400m, then follows a gradual descent
through 1200m. "Finale" hill, a 100m steep and rocky climb,
greets competitors a quarter mile out from the finish.

Spring
Hill Elementary, Lafayette CA
Home
of the Acalanes Dons, a single 1000m loop that traverses the side
of a monsterous hill provides most of the trail for the Spring Hill
course. Starting and finishing on the grass field at the elementary
school, the course navigates through a small gate and around a portable
classroom before hitting the gravel trail. Two loops for frosh soph
and junior varsity, three loops for varsity.

Ukiah
High School, Ukiah CA
The
course is 5000 meters. Starting on the massive athletic field, the
course navigates several loops around the lower athletic field,
the upper athletic field, and a small vinyard before finishing around
the south end of the school and on to the track. Two short hills
on the east side of the vinyard are run forward in the first mile,
then backward in the second. Due to the multitude of turns, long
stretches on grass and woodchips, and typically cold or wet weather,
the course usually runs at least 30 seconds slower than Woodward
Park.

Woodward
Park , Fresno CA
The
course is 5000 meters. The start and finish are on a wide grass
area. The rest of the trails are hard packed dirt with a couple
of short streches on asphalt. It has mild ups and downs over rolling
hills with one steep short hill. Many major cross country meets
have been run on this course, including Footlocker, the CIF State
Meet, Clovis Invitational, and the JC State Championships.
