It is unknown exactly when Cross Country was invented. This is because man himself have been racing against each other sense the caveman era. It was deemed to be "manly" to be the faster man in the tribe. Over time, the races became more sophisticated and organized, to the point of where it is at today.

What better football or cross country?

Football works out more muscles, and cross country is really boring. Depends what you see as fun, cross country is more of a manly sport though cause not everyone can run 7 miles nearly everyday. Football is fun unless you're a scrub who has never played before. Also in football you work a lot on upper body -------------------------------------------------------------------- The upper answer isn't really helpful, since they're obviously into football so are knocking the other sport. Anyways here, football and cross-country are both very good sports. They both do wonders. Cross-country builds up you lower muscles, breathing. Football does upper strength. But, cross-country has no breaks, no half times, and no time outs. If you enter a race, you can't stop. It's all about distance and how into shape you are. Football, all you really need to know is how to attack and how to throw a ball...... I'm kidding, I'm kidding. Football is hard depending on how tough the other team is, or how hard your coach trains you. Same with cross-country. So really you decide which would be better for you, football or cross-country.
