AVAILABLE TO GRADES 3RD – 8TH

The St. Ambrose CYO Cross Country and Track and Field program is designed to expose athletes to the fundamentals of running (form, pacing, and endurance); provide a fun, safe environment where individual ability comes out; and help athletes get fit while learning to value fitness and achieve personal performance goals.
