XC Grand Prix Series
The XC Grand Prix series combines the essential ingredients of real running: varied terrain, natural surfaces and plenty of food. Run a few or complete all ten races in the series. Each XC is preceded by a kids’ race about 1 km in length. All races are followed by social mixing, soup and desserts. The soup, buns and beverages are provided. You bring the dessert.
