The club competes every year in two cross country leagues, the Chiltern & Three Counties. Both are run as team events with points scored by each runner, so it doesn't matter what your finishing time is, only your position. Entry to either league is free for club members but they have to run in a club vest/t-shirt. Here's a bit of an overview:
This league is one of the largest leagues in the country and involves 5 races across various locations in the Chiltern area. Races occur on a Saturday and distances range from 2k for under-11 boys and girls to 5-6k for senior ladies and 8-10k for senior men. Ladies and men run at different times which allows for great spectation and encouragement! All runners must be EA registered.
