Online Registration Instructions

48th Annual Fort Plain Cross Country Invitational will be held this year on SATURDAY, October 24th at the Fort Plain Sports Complex on the campus of Harry Hoag Elementary School. The venue overlooks the scenic Mohawk Valley. The course is typically fast featuring rolling terrain, mostly on grass and offers a fair but challenging test for all levels of scholastic runners. The courses traverse nearly the same terrain, with the Modified course tallying out to nearly 1.7 miles and the Varsity courses stretching out to 3.0 miles. 

The courses are very spectator friendly with the opportunity to view a majority of the races from one vantage point. If one is feeling adventurous, the whole course can be seen by travelling just a short distance between spots, while seeing the green rolling hills and dales of the historic Mohawk Valley.
