Answer

The IAAF World Cross Country Championship is held on a cross-country surface, a natural terrain that includes grass, dirt, hills, and other obstacles. Unlike road running, cross-country courses are designed to challenge runners with varying terrain and uneven surfaces, testing their endurance, agility, and ability to adapt to changing conditions.
