The English National Cross Country Championships are the largest and most prestigious domestic cross-country event in the UK, first being held in 1876.
For 2026, the Championships are being staged in the North East for the first time since 2013 (for a complete list of venues going back to the beginning of the Championships, see here). This year’s race will be held at Hardwick Hall in Sedgefield on Saturday 21st February.
Let’s make the most of this opportunity! We are aiming for a strong TBH turnout for both men and women. The races feature fields of several thousand each, so we would love to see runners from all training groups getting involved.
The women will race at 1:40pm (8km) with the men going at 3:00pm (12km). For full info, click here.
Hardwick Hall is less than 45mins drive from the pool so we intend to car-share our way there.
Sign up below by Sunday 1st February.
