Strathearn Harriers - New Year's Day Run 2014

Cross-Country

Nothing beats a muddy cross country race on a cold and wet winter afternoon! This is a big focus of our winter season and a great way of bringing the whole club together. We participate in the East District Cross-Country League against all the clubs in the East of Scotland from Galashiels to Aberdeen. The league consists of 3 events - in Oct, Nov and Jan - with races for U12 upwards.
