Organiser's Description
WELCOME TO EUROCROSS!
Eurocross is the perfect combination of the athleticism and spectator attraction of steeplechase with the challenge and varied terrain of cross-country. The 5K race will be the same as previous years.It will involve running multiple loops of a 1K grass and dirt course with creek crossings.
UPDATE: THE 8K IS CANCELLED FOR 2024 DUE TO COURSE CONSTRUCTION! The 8K race will be run on a 2K course. The challenge of the Eurocross lies in hurdling hay bales, sloshing through a creek, running through a forested section and grunting up one short, but steep hill. Aside from the obstacles, the grass course provides a refreshing break from the road. The entire course is visible from the spectator area, making it a crowd pleaser--so bring your fan club!
NOTE: ENTRY FEES ARE THE SAME WHETHER YOU RUN ONE OR BOTH RACES.
