top <Rescheduled – Oxfordshire Cross Country Championships ~ Wednesday, 29 January 2014
Following their postponement earlier this month, the Oxfordshire Cross Country Championships have now been rescheduled to be held on Sunday, 2nd March at the Rutherford Appleton Laboratories, Harwell in conjunction with the fifth and final round of the Oxford Mail Cross Country League.
The timetable will be as for the Oxford Mail League races – but there will be a change in the awarding of prizes for the County Prize Winners. It is planned to award medals where possible to the first three runners in the various races immediately after the races. There will be no special prize ceremonies for the County Medals as there are already ceremonies for the awards to the Oxford Mail League Prize Winners. Similarly, the team medals will be awarded after the event, rather than on the day.
