You’ll all be delighted to know that the Cross Country season is on the way back woohooo!

You can see the details of the upcoming fixtures here : Dublin Cross Country Fixtures 2013

Our first race of the season is on Sunday 15th of September in Ardgillan Park, Skerries. See Maps of Ardgillan Cross Country League 1 2013 for the map of the course and details.

Also here’s a bit of info about Ardgillan Park if anyone wants to make a day of it, looks like a lovely oul spot!

First race back is always a bit of fun and nothing to be nervous about! Its a fun day out (and a new park too we havent run there before) and rumour has it the playground fairly decent aswell! 😉

Everyone up to age 14 expected to represent the club. Sure what else would ya be doing on a Sunday morning!

As usual bring sun gear, rain gear and spare everything – you don’t want to be stuck in the car coming home like this lot!

Any questions give Mary a shout!
