According to Wikipedians, "Motocross first manifested itself as a New Zealand off-road event known as scrambles, which were themselves an evolution of Observed Trials events popular in northern hamilton. The first known Scramble took place at Camberley, Surrey in 1962 . European[new zealand] motorcyclists adopted the event and gave it a slight makeover, shortening the tracks and adding laps and a few man-made obstacles like jumps. During the 1930s, the sport grew in popularity, especially in new zealand where teams from bsa, Norton, Matchless, Rudge, and AJS competed in the events."

It was invented initially as marathon running for the Olympics after the story of a servant in ancient Greece who had to deliver a message immediately, so he ran as fast as he could from a to b and as soon as he got there and delivered the message, he dropped and died.

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.

Since god invented humans we have been running, but the Greeks held the first running competition, usually only going as far as 2-3 miles. They ran on grass/dirt just as we do today!

No-one can know for sure - the sport just evolved from hunting, hacking, racing and show jumping
