ISU Cross Country Course
In October 1995, the ISU Cross Country Course was dedicated and opened. This facility was the original dream of Iowa State Men’s Cross Country Coach Bill Bergan. It was the host of the 2000 NCAA Division 1 Cross Country Championships and was the first course in the United States to be specifically and used and tailored for cross-country racing.

Famous quotes containing the words cross and/or country:
“There is the grand truth about Nathaniel Hawthorne. He says NO! in thunder; but the Devil himself cannot make him say yes. For all men who say yes, lie; and all men who say no,—why, they are in the happy condition of judicious, unincumbered travellers in Europe; they cross the frontiers into Eternity with nothing but a carpet-bag,—that is to say, the Ego. Whereas those yes-gentry, they travel with heaps of baggage, and, damn them! they will never get through the Custom House.”
—Herman Melville (1819–1891)
“Thus, far from the beaten highways and the dust and din of travel, we beheld the country privately, yet freely, and at our leisure.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
