Club Races: Cross-Country & Relays
As a club, Claremont Road Runners participate in a number of local inter-club competitions – these split into cross-country competitions and a variety of relay races. These events are open to all club members – the club pays the entrance fees and organises lifts to the venues.
Cross-Country
