Grasshopper Mile Race

This is an Elementary cross country mile located at South Adams High School in Berne, Indiana at the Cross Country pavilion in the south parking lot. This event is open to all Elementary kids K-5. The course is a chunk of our high school and middle school course with the finish through the South Adams arch.

Age Groups

There will be age groups consisting of 3rd grade and under, 4th grade, and 5th grade, with the top three in each age group (boys and girls) receiving a prize. Spikes are allowed on the course but are not permitted in the school.

Timing and Registration

This year the race will not be chip-timed; it will be hand-timed. We are hoping the race can get enough attraction to get a chip time for next year! There will be tee shirts available for purchase at the race.

Race Day Schedule

Race day registration begins at 4:30 pm, with the third-grade race at 5:30 pm, the fourth-grade at 5:55 pm, and the fifth-grade race at 6:20 pm.
