We are headed back to Kirkcaldy for our Lindsays Short Course XC Champs early next month.

This is an event which had grown spectacularly in the years before Covid-19 and recovered well last year with a big entry at Lanark.

Now we will return to the course at Kirkcaldy High School on Saturday 5 November where Andy Butchart and Annabel Simpson took golds back in 2019.

Six races are on the schedule for that day with the Short Course XC Champs open to all ages from U15 through to the Juniors/Senior/Masters races.

Entries are open online now both the clubs and to individuals.
