Cross-Country

Start to Junior Boys Cross Country - photo by Louisa Grew (B)The school has a long and proud tradition in cross country running.  We have four courses that take runners into wooded areas up and down hills and are a real challenge for runners of any ability.  The school cross country season occurs in the Lent term, when we run 2 senior boys' sides and girls' team and a junior boys' team.

The school also take part in a House cross country event on the Lent term.  There are four races and the event sees over 400 of the school taking part. 

We also have the ‘Ampleforth Run’, a slightly longer course where House teams and a staff team compete for the trophy.
