Coach: Alex Dankwa Email: coachdankwa@gmail.com Cross Country is an opportunity for students to challenge themselves, build endurance, and experience the rewards of individual growth while contributing to a supportive team environment. Through practices and competitions, runners develop perseverance, mental toughness, goal-setting skills, and a strong work ethic that extends beyond the course. Students will compete in the CPSAL league, gaining valuable race experience against schools from across New York City while representing BASIS Independent Manhattan with pride. Whether you're an experienced runner or looking to improve your fitness and try something new, Cross Country welcomes athletes of all ability levels who are ready to push themselves and celebrate progress together.
