How does cross country running differ from track running?

  • Longer Distance

  • Team Scoring

  • Varied Terrain

  • Always Indoors

Answer

**Varied Terrain:** Unlike track running, cross country running takes place on natural terrain, which includes hills, trails, grass, mud, and sometimes even obstacles like logs or streams. This variation in terrain demands different physical qualities and techniques from runners, making cross country a more challenging and dynamic sport.
