Every Winter the Club Participates in 5 Derby Runner BDL Cross Country Races
The cross country runs take place once a month from October to February. The series is growing rapidly and KADS are seeing record turnouts with a number of members taking part in all 5 of the races.
Any race is daunting if it's your first, but the cross country races are fantastic fun. They're not flat, you will get at least a little muddy and it can get a little cold but you're guaranteed to be supported and cheered home by one of the best supported teams in the league. If you own a pair of trail shoes, we suggest bringing them to your first cross country race and later on consider investing in a pair of spikes (Decathlon in Giltbrook sell them, as do the local running shops - The Derby Runner and Nottingham's Up & Running).
There's no need to register or collect a number for these races, you just turn up on the day with your club vest or T shirt and enjoy the race with your fellow KADS! You can find information about upcoming races, and results from previous Derby Runner BDL races at the league tracker website.
If you complete all 5 races you'll also receive an award at the club presentation evening in March!
