Questions about cross-country races in Europe
Which cross-country races are coming up in Europe?
Scottish National XC Relay Championships is listed for 23 October 2026. Baltic Cross Country Team Championships is listed for 24 October 2026 (status to be confirmed). Joydens Wood Cross Country Races 1 is listed for 24 October 2026 (status to be confirmed). Check the race guide and organiser’s latest information before making plans.
What running distances are listed in Europe?
Look for 5 mile races in the upcoming listings. If an event offers several distances, check the individual race guide to choose the edition and distance you want to enter.
Where can I find race entry details for Europe?
Follow the link from the race guide to the organiser or entry provider, where one is available. Check the entry deadline, eligibility and current availability there. A listed race date does not necessarily mean entries are still open.
Why has a race moved out of the upcoming calendar?
Once its listed dates have passed, a race moves to the past-editions view unless another upcoming edition is recorded. Cancelled events also leave the upcoming list. The race guide stays available, and the event returns when a new date is added.
