XC Grand Prix Series
The XC Grand Prix series combines the essential ingredients of real running: varied terrain, natural surfaces and normally 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. Until COVID issues subside, no post-race meals will be held.
