Cross Country Season is HERE!
Can you smell XC season in the air? We certainly can! Hope you’re ready for another epic season of muddiness.
New to Cross Country? No Problem!
Cross country is for everyone and all abilities – seriously! If you have questions about what Cross Country is all about or how it works, please get in contact with Bretti for a chat. But here’s a quick overview to get you started:
The Gwent League
The season consists of 5 fixtures run on grass, mud, some inclines… and did I mention mud ? … Each race brings that healthy competitive spirit as we go head-to-head with other local clubs.
How It Works
- Your Race Number: Each runner gets allocated a bib/number with a barcode (similar to parkrun) that you’ll keep for the whole season
- Don’t worry about the logistics: Bretti will look after your number throughout the season – collect it before your race and hand it back when you’re done.
- What You Need to Do: Rock up and run! (Maybe help set up the tent if you fancy it ?)
What the Club Provides
- Free Entry: The club covers race entry fees for all fully paid members
- Team Tent: Changing facilities and shelter from the elements
- Refreshments: Tea, coffee, and goodies to fuel your post-race recovery
