TSSSA Cross Country caters for students with some experience in cross country running. Cross Country is an individual sport where competitors race against each other across varying terrain in the aim to be first across the finish line.
There is also a team element to the TSSSA event, where the first 6 runners who cross the line from a school will count towards the schools’ team total. The TSSSA Cross Country is the premier event for Taranaki’s Cross-Country runners, it is great preparation for the NZSS Cross Country midyear.
