22nd August 2024

22nd August 2024 – Rochdale Harriers and A.C. are proud to announce the introduction of its in-house RHAC Cross Country Championship for the season 2024/25. The brainchild of Juliet Smith (Ladies Captain), the Championship is aimed at increasing participation in cross country. The Championship is open to all RHAC members, regardless of age or ability, including our Junior athletes.

Juliet, a veteran of cross country herself, commented “Cross country builds endurance and strength for spring and summer races. Its great fun and you can see your progress over the winter”.

The RHAC Cross Country Championships is based on the 7 races in the Red Rose and South East Lancs. Cross Country Leagues. Your best 4 results count. Trophies will be awarded to the top 3 men and women overall and in each 5-year Veteran age category. Junior categories are also included. Everyone who completes at least 4 of the relevant races will get something – even if you do not finish in the top three.

The entry deadlines and fixture lists are copied below. For more information please see Juliet Smith or Colin Robinson who will be more than happy to help or have a skim through the RHAC Cross Country Championship Rules.
