Cross Country

Winter – Adults Cross Country

This event is run on Saturday after lunch, or Sunday in the morning, so you have time to watch the kids in other sports first. Children, beginners, and walkers run a shorter course than the main runners, to avoid overdoing it.

Parents are welcome to walk alongside kids and encourage them on. Some parents struggle to catch kids at the start, but end up piggy-backing them after the hills!

If we run a 10km event for the Seniors, we will run 1.8km-3km events for beginners, walkers and children at the same time. Then each persons time is recorded in their own grouping. It’s all about working on your own improvement, rather than comparing to others.

Testimonials

“I enjoy watching my times improve, even though it’s slow, I know I am definitely getting fitter for me.”

Rachel Browne
Receptionist

“The best thing about being a Lake City runner is that I really enjoy my food again. I now fit the same clothes I wore 20 years ago!”

Kerris Browne
Office Manager

“I am a retired Marathon Runner but I still race walk almost every day. My biggest buzz is helping those who don’t think they can do it, and seeing the excitement on their faces when they realize they can.”

Colin Smyth

“It’s fantastic that my [heavier built] daughter has finally found something she enjoys and doesn’t feel useless at. She’s doing great in discus and enjoys high jump.”
