Summer Cross Country
Enter Here
The Portsmouth Joggers Summer Cross Country Race (SXC) is an annual event organised by Race Directors Tony Quinn, Ally Smith, and Sue Clarke. It takes place on a Wednesday evening in June or July each year at the beautiful Queen Elizabeth Country Park.
It is a 5-mile hilly route; so, not for the faint hearted, but it is incredibly fun! After the race, participants can enjoy refreshments from a burger van, often an ice cream truck, and of course plenty of socialising.
A few training sessions take place over the weeks prior to the race, which are open to all, with both a running and a walking/jeffing group, guiding you round the course, with sweeties to finish.
Each year, a portion of the race proceeds is donated to a local charity. The 2024 donation went to Cycling Without Age.
