  • I'd like to give some cross country a go this year if I can fix a niggly achilles problem. Is there a site anywhere that lists out events in London/Greater London (Surrey way) ? When does the cross season tend to start roughly?

  • you may find that joining a running club is the easiest way. I think that's the only way you can enter the large blue riband events like the southern and national champs

  • +1 for joining a running club. Some of the best XC fixtures London/Surrey way will be in the Surrey League, which has 4 divisions, 4 fixtures running October - February. Even if you just join a club for the XC opportunities it'll work out good value cos they'll just enter you as part of the team. (We - Kent AC - were Surrey League champions 5 years running until Wimbledon nicked it off us last season. Not that I make the team these days!)
