Get your team in on the action at hokapostalnationals.com! 2026 HOKA Postal Nationals Returns After Record-Breaking Season in 2025 Teams across the United States seek state and national honors from August 24-November 2
(EUGENE, OR) August 24, 2026 – HOKA Postal Nationals, a partnership between RunnerSpace and HOKA®, is off and running, as the 2026 edition seeks to build off of a record-break 2025 campaign in which more than 1,200 teams across the United States submitted two-mile performances and earned state and national bragging rights.
From August 24 through November 2, high school cross country teams compete in HOKA Postal Nationals by recording two-mile races and time trials on the track, uploading their top five finishers at the varsity, sophomore, and freshman levels to the HOKA Postal Nationals platform, and measuring themselves against state and national competition.
While state and national honors are on the line, an additional perk of the program is all participating coaches who upload their team’s results to the official leaderboard receive a free pair of HOKA shoes at the end of the season.
In 2025, a record number of teams participated in HOKA Postal Nationals, as 1,242 teams across 46 states submitted two mile times. Rocky Mountain (ID) came away victorious in the girls competition, while Campolindo (CA) proved victorious in the boys competition.
The Rocky Mountain girls repeated as champion, eclipsing their mark from 2024 with the second fastest performance in Postal Nationals history with their 55:05.60 (11:01 avg.) effort, finishing only four seconds back from the all-time program best of 55:01.80 set by Boise (ID) in 2021.
Behind Rocky Mountain, St. Francis Sacramento (CA) and Johnston (IA) ran the tenth and 11th fastest marks in Postal Nationals history with their 56:01.60 (11:12 avg.) and 56:02.60 (11:13 avg.) marks.
On the boys side, Campolindo ran the fourth fastest mark in Postal Nationals history, dominating the competition with their 46:41.80 (9:20 avg.). Campolindo is the only program to have both a boys team and girls team rank in the top five all-time performances, as their girls squad ranks fourth best all-time from their 2022 program victory.
Plainfield South (IL) earned another top ten all-time mark after their 2022 performance earned them the national title. The 2025 team posted the eighth fastest mark with a 47:06.90 (9:25 avg.) effort, while Bellarmine College Prep (CA) ran the 12th fastest time in Postal Nationals history with their third place 47:28.20 (9:28 avg.) performance.
