Grand Prix 2026 ELTRINGHAM XC

Seventeen senior Harriers helped to bring the curtain down on one of the most memorable seasons of Cross Country the club has had in a number of years.

Well done to all who took part at the new Harrier League venue of Eltringham Farm. The route featured all the classics namely grassy bits, woody bits, hilly bits and muddy bits.

Overall Leaders so far:

Rosie Warnett (34points)
Emma Lee & Samantha Foreman Foreman (33 points each)

David Wase (48 points)
Andrew Swinbank (34 points)
David Walker (25 points)

Next up is the Darlington Trail Locomotion 5k on Wednesday 27th March. Link in the comments. There does not seem to be any information around about May’s Marina 5 miler so an alternative race may be needed – details to follow asap.

A massive turnout for the first XC meeting of the season meant that 25 senior members gained 5 points each towards their Grand Prix totals!  The junior section was also well represented with runners across lots of the age groups proudly wearing the white & blue.

With 3 more XC meetings in 2025 and 6 more GP races then there is still plenty to play for!  Turn up, win the lot and that’s 75 points!  If only it was that simple.
