Hilly course, 100% grass. Not too slow, long downhills make up for the uphills. I'm not sure about the 8k course but the 10k course is about 500-600m short
It is an all grass surface, but it isn't golf course quality grass. They mow it, but it has more bumps in it, and it is a little thicker. Surface quality is similar to the Wisconsin course. In terms of difficulty and how fast it is, it is a very very very challenging course. There are a lot of hills, and some of them are very steep and long. It makes it very difficult to get into a rhythm. Also, it is traditionally very hot and humid at that meet. Overall, it's going to be a really tough race, so bring your mental toughness A-game.

This is the site of the 2023 NCAA Div I Natty’s. Any changes of significance to the course since the above was written?

It is time to bring this front and center, so that Florida can start preparing.

Watch tuohy at timestamp 1:05. She stalked that tangent from a 100m back. Then looked over to her right at the Notre Dame girl on the turn, maybe to say “what are you doing?” I snagged that big time, and I’m going to own you.”
The 2022 acc xc w race is on yt. The course seems to run faster than the terrain would indicate.
This course was known to be short when I ran it in College like 5 years ago. 10K moreso than the 8K, unsure about 6k. Its tough though, very few places to get into a rhythm as its rolling hills the whole way. Excited to see the best runners in the country race on it.

At timestamp 1:05 of the video link I posted.
Tuohy runs cross-country like a stalking linebacker. She will half-step behind, then step in, like Sophie O’Sullivan in track, making her presence known on those tangents, blow-after-blow, mentally and physically wearing her opponent down in the early going.

It’s been re-vamped since you ran it. Lanana made adjustments 4 years ago to put it as a premier course with the goal in mind to host the NCAA Championships.

Meanwhile, the Notre Dame girl runs politely, “Oh, you want in? I’ll give you some space.”
