Afternoon Harriers
There’s quite a lot going on over the next two months so, to avoid missing out, please find below a summary of all the XC fixtures to the end of the year along with their entry deadlines.
If you have signed up for XC then you have already been entered for all the relevant Kent XC League races.
Please email me if you would like to run at any of the other races.
If you haven’t signed up yet, please complete the sign up form and pay your £10 subs into the club bank account (details below), then email me for any of the non-Kent League races in which you wish to take part.
This year the Women’s Kent XC League race at Swanley clashes with the South of the Thames 5 Mile race at Beckenham. As the Kent League takes priority we kindly ask that all our women XC runners go to Swanley and not to Beckenham. Last year it was the men’s race that clashed.
