54 Rambles: Boys and Girls Cross Country Run on Saturday at Spring Creek Park in Tomball
9/30/2024
Cross Country is a sport of numbers. The number of competitors, distance, and time account for most of the math involved in each race. Five runners score for the team, and runners 6 and 7 can push other teams’ scores higher; if there is a tie, the team's sixth runner will break the stalemate. 5000 meters is the length of most high school races. Middle school races are 3200 meters long. Each runner also wears a bib with their race number and sensor which calculates individual times instantaneously at the finish line. On Saturday, October 5, 800 runners will converge at Spring Creek Park in Tomball for the 54th edition of the St. John’s Ramble. St. John's will have approximately 90 runners participating (girls and boys middle school and high school). 8 races will take place starting at 8:00 a.m. The day before the starting gun goes off in race #1, more numbers will come into play.
