Edworthy Park XC Race Postponed

The Edworthy Park XC race which was scheduled for January 9th, has been postponed to March 20th due to ongoing COVID-19 restrictions. We look forward to racing again in person when restrictions allow. Until then, keep training and stay safe.

Edworthy Park and Silver Springs X-C races moved to Jan 9 2021 and TBD date, respectively

The Edworthy Park x-c race director Aleks and the CRR Grand Prix organizing committee decided to move the event to January 9 2021. The Silver Springs event on December 12 2020 has also been moved to a later date (TBD), due to the Provincial Government’s restrictions on outdoor sport events. Stay safe.
