The NIKE Cross Nationals, AKA #NXN is here, December 6, 2025, Your Wait is over!!!!

The 20th verison of the NIKE Cross Nationals is almost here! And you can watch it tomorrow, via Runnerspace, no matter where you are. Thirty-one teams and some of the finest unattached athletes will be competing at the Glendover Golf Course for high school tem supremacy and invidual glory.

In my mind, NXN is all the about the teams, from one to seven. All seven athletes count! Since the first time I saw NXN (in year one of the Cross-Country era), I have loved the innovation and enthusiasm for the athletes.

And the swag!

NIKE takes great care of the athletes, celebrating their performances, their dedication and their love of the sport! The fun team apparel, footwear and treatment change athletes lives! They see their running efforts  as significant and meet like minded athletes. It is one of the reason why I love the event.

Cross-Country is one of the most vibrant sports on the high school scene.

Enjoy how RunBlogRun covers the NXN with photos, video, podcasts and stories! Oh, and sign up at [email protected] for our FREE NIKE Cross-Country Newsletter!
