The course is run entirely on grass and is a combination of gently rolling hills and flat areas, which should provide for very good times.  The high school races will be 5,000 meters, the middle school races will be 3,000 meters, and the elementary races will be 1,500 meters.  There will be an admission fee for spectators.  Change facilities and restrooms will be on site at the campgrounds.  There will be a large area for school tents and parking for at least 5,000 cars.  In the event of inclement weather, various buildings are available for cover for participants as well as spectators.  Exclusive Chick-Fil-A Invitational T-shirts will be on sale on site.  Hot and cold concessions will be available.  The awards’ ceremony will be on site, next to the start/finish area.

 

You must register online. Go to www.timetoenter.com to register.  Entry fees for our meet are $35 for each team per high school (if both a boys' and girls' team, then $70) and $20 for each team per middle school (if both a boys' and girls' team, then $40).  There is a $5 per runner fee for all other individuals.  Please make checks payable to: Chick-Fil-A Invitational and mail to On the Run, 2903 Emerson Avenue, Parkersburg, WV 26104.  The deadline for entry applications and fees is August 31, 2013.  No entries after the deadline and no refunds.
