Welcome to the cross country section of the club. We take part in a number of events between October and March.
Cross country is traditionally a team event providing healthy competition for athletes as they build endurance for the rigours of the next road or track & field season. These 4-8 mile off road races provide excellent training for all endurance runners. Road runners - if you can finish 10K of hills and mud then the same distance on the road should feel easier and definitely faster!
For an introduction to cross country consider the Steve Saunders multi-terrain series held every Tuesday throughout September.
