Franklin Park
The park is a famed cross country course, hosting
a number of high school and collegiate meets throughout the year.
The park includes courses for 3000 meters, 5000 meters, 6000 meters,
8000 meters and 10000 meters. Franklin Park also won the honor
of hosting the IAAF World Cross Country Championships in 1992,
as a special 12.5 kilometer course was used for competition. Each
course includes variants of 3 major loops, the stadium loop, the
Bear Cage hill loop, and the wilderness loop. The stadium loop
goes around the back of White Stadium, while the Bear Cage loop
climbs the fairly significant Bear Cage Hill. The wilderness loop
crosses into the wooded area of the park and follows a twisting
path through the trees.
