Cross country races often cover various types of terrain. Which is not typically included?
Mud
Sand
Asphalt
Indoor Carpet
Answer
Indoor Carpet is not typically included in cross-country races because they are typically held outdoors on natural terrain, such as grass, dirt, hills, and even mud. The purpose of cross-country racing is to challenge runners' endurance, agility, and ability to adapt to different terrains, which cannot be fully achieved on an indoor carpet surface.
