The North Middlesex High School cross-country teams run on the Life Skills course at Hawthorne Brook Middle School, on Brookline Road in Townsend, MA.
The course is 3.1 miles long (an actual 5K), & is run entirely in the woods. No pavement here! Runners run along the scenic Squanacook River, & cool & shady wooded paths.
Apparently, it is easy to lose your way on the course, so pay attention while you're walking it before the race. For the 2004-2005, there will be course markings everywhere, so as to prevent any runner from getting lost.
