Ethos of the Borders Cross-Country Series
As this is the 25th Anniversary of the Borders Cross-Country
Series it is an opportune moment to remind ourselves of the ethos behind this
series. The series was started
twenty-five years ago in order to give all runners, regardless of ability and /
or age, the opportunity to take part in organised – hence safe - cross-country
running. The premise behind the series
is that all runners are able to experience the joy, excitement and benefits of
running cross-country in a friendly, supportive and sociable environment whilst
enjoying the magnificent scenery to be found in the Borders, East Lothian and
North Northumberland. The competitive
element has always been – and still remains - secondary to this. In order to preserve this ethos of friendship,
support and non-competitive rivalry, the Committee has introduced a Code of
Conduct. This Code of Conduct is,
obviously, voluntary but the Committee hopes that all - both runners and
spectators - respect and adhere to it.
OK..here we go "again".
Still not 100% but we have changed the anomalies that have been brought to our attention.

And here are a selection of photos from Dunbar's James Addie:
That's pretty much it then. The various reps from the host clubs will let you know when entries for next seasons races are opening. Until then whether your "thing" is track, field, hill, road, trail or ultra ....enjoy your running!
