Individual winners were awarded medals and the fastest teams received trophies.
Since 2009, Canyons District has sponsored competitions for CSD middle school students. At the championship races held each fall, the top three girls and three boys from each of Canyons’ eight middle schools run a 1.75-mile cross country race around the Eastmont campus.
The middle school intramurals program was developed to promote healthy lifestyles and gauge interest for future competitive sports programs.
