Special thanks to our gold sponsor The Village Bank for helping to make event this possible.
ABOUT THE EVENT
Race day is Sunday, October 12, 2025!
This will be the 19th running of the Wayland Cross Country Festival. Over the years our Sponsors and Participants have contributed over $37,000 to the cross-country and track programs of our host and beneficiary, the Wayland High School. We work to provide healthy running opportunities for all ages, from our low entry fee for youth, generous award programs for adults, and direct benefits to the Wayland High School cross-country program. It's a great day of community and competition.
The Wayland XC Festival was chosen again to be part of the USATF-NE Grand Prix in 2024. We hope to be back on the GP in 2025. This is a testament to the high quality of this event, as only the best races in New England are chosen for this series.
