Few courses in high school cross country are as recognizable as Mt. SAC. The race begins with faster sections through the Valley Loop before runners tackle the long climb of the Switchbacks. Runners then face the legendary Poop Out and Reservoir Hill, testing strength and grit deep into the race. With challenging climbs followed by sweeping descents, Mt. SAC is a true test for athletes who can stay strong when the course gets tough. The Brooks XC West Championship is headed to Mt. SAC on December 5, 2026 - register today. brooksrunning | #BrooksXC
