Distance running is among the most physically demanding sports. Cross Country also has team elements - pack running, drafting.

Well that was a rather obvious attempt, but a few people still fell for it.

Jolly good show.

"A sport is commonly defined as an organized, competitive, and skillful physical activity requiring commitment and fair play." Yep, it's a sport.
