I always liked XC over CC with the arrow because the X was just so much cooler to me in school. Especially true when I was on a small team and we didn't get much respect. Not many school sports have an X in the name, and that made us feel cool.

And Christmas always over X-mas; though the ancient christian writings use X or XP to denote Christ, which is the basis of the term X-mas. People don't use that much anymore, which is why I perfer to avoid the confusion by using Christmas.

I prefer XC to CC.  Though when I was in high school and more recently when coaching most of our gear had the cc with the arrow through it.

Sorry a little late. I think both CC and XC are used a lot and pretty much ether works. Like Coach Holt said, we have a cheer with XC in it but CC is used on a lot of stuff (clothes, papers). XC is easier to say and I never just say CC. I guess CC with the arrow is kind of like a tradition thing and XC is like a new cool thing.

XC just looks cooler, and you could do a better logo with that lettering.

I have to admit, some of my gear says cc, but I think that all of the devoted runners are always going to use xc. It just sounds more official.

Does that mean you aren't a devoted runner if you prefer CC?

No. I don't mean that. I guess I would say that on average, the more devoted runners will use xc, but not always. No offense to anyone who uses cc.

XC, because it looks tougher! Nothing more frightening that the letter "X"...

Which is why I'm changing my name to "Chad X"

Change it to "X Chad" instead and you can be the all intimidating "XC"

Man. I wish my name started with a c. I don't think that xs has the same effect.

Adam, I will put a vote in for XC as well.  I just made some new t-shirts that have East in small print above a big XC with a scratching paw over the XC.  In smaller print on the bottom I did write out Cross Country.  I think they turned out nice and agree XC is tougher, but add a scratching Leopard paw on top and as the kids would say, "It's tight".

It looks like xc has totally dominated cc in the voting. :-)
