Cross Country Facilities
Luther has one of the only on-campus cross-country courses in the Iowa Conference; acres of open field, woods, and prairie on campus provide ideal training for both cross country and distance track. In Decorah, the Oneota River Valley provides miles of gravel roads, challenging hills, and endless trails littered throughout the bluff country.
The course is home to the Iowa Conference record setting Norse men's and women's cross country teams. The Norse women have been crowned IIAC champions a record 10 times, and the men have won the league title a record 28 times.
In 2006, the men's team finished 6th at the NCAA III National Championships, while the women placed 11th. The men have made 24 trips to the national championships, while the women have made eight.
