Multi-Terrain League

Welcome to the Multi-Terrain Club Championship. The objective is to promote trail and multi-terrain running by finding the best races within reach and encouraging other Harriers there to ensure it’s fun as well as competitive.

Try one, or tackle them all, but to qualify for the competition each year, runners need to complete 5 or more races from the list below.
