1. A recreational sport in which people tour through wooded trails at a leisurely pace.

2. A grueling competitive sport in which skiers, using classical or freestyle technique, try their best to mentally and physically outperform other skiers. Europe, especially Scandinavia, tends to have the best skiers.

3. A high school and college sport (assuming you live in a snowy enough area) that tends to attract cross country runners, soccer players, attractive girls, and, in my experience, Latin students.
Cross country skiing is a nice way to get around.

Thousands of cross country skiers compete in the American Birkebeiner in Cable, Wisconsin.

A sport for kids who are unathletic. They can run fast for a long time (for the most part), and thats about it. In elementary school they were picked last for soccer, football, kickball basketball, etc. because they lack hand eye coordination, and a general mental capacity to anything other than run in a straight line and hop over the occasional rock or two. Humans have evolved to run, they think doing something natural is somehow a sport.

Not a true sport. Running is a way of getting from point A to point B. XC runners are not athletes. I'm not saying it isn't difficult, probably one of the toughest, but not a sport at all. And it is gay
Hey wanna go play a sport?
