Cross Country Season is Here!

The 2015 Cross Country season gets underway this weekend.

In the Vancouver area, the action begins where it all ended last Fall, at Jericho Beach Park, as the Vancouver Spirit Run plays host to the first event in the Lower Mainland Cross Country Series on Sunday.

On the Island, competition starts next Saturday in Victoria at Elk-Beaver Lake with the first race in the Christie-Phoenix Insurance Victoria Run Series.

And in the Interior, the first race in the Starting Block Cross Country Series is next Sunday, at the Fresh Air Hard Knox Challenge in Kelowna.

Competition continues through September and October, building to the BC Cross Country Championships, which this year are in Nanaimo on Saturday, October 24. 

The BC Championships serves as the selection races for Youth, Junior, Senior and Masters teams to represent BC at the Canadian Cross Country Championships in Kingston, ON on Saturday, November 28.
