World Athletics Cross Country Championships
The World Athletics Cross Country Championships (WXC) has been labelled as the ‘World’s premier footraces for the world’s toughest runners’.
The WXC is a biennial event consisting of five races held in one-day, including Women’s and Men’s 10km, Mixed Team 4x2km Relay, U20 Men’s 8km, and U20 Women’s 6km. The event presents highly competitive races on technical terrain, as National teams select their five best runners over any distance from 1,500m to Marathon.
From humble beginnings, the World Athletics Cross Country Championships has become one of the most entertaining footraces in the world – at the same time, it promotes active tourism and inspires mass participation.
