Inter-club

Each year our members compete in the local inter club series of individual and team road and cross-country races and track & field events during summer. These races are suitable for all runners and have no time limits, although some (such as the hilly Vosseler cross-country race) do require a reasonable level of fitness to complete them. Scottish compete each year in a league of three biggest inter club races, the Wellington Cross-Country Championships, the Wellington 10km road championships and the prestigious Dorne Cup, to determine Wellington’s best runners for the year.
