Cross Country & Road 2025
Canterbury Time Trial
Saturday July 26th
Run in conjunction with PAPO (the Peninsula and Plains Orienteering Club), this event will test people's ability to run fast in their own space and see who comes out the fastest.
URGENT UPDATE - VENUE CHANGE
​
Due to circumstances beyond our control the CCC has shifted our event to the Armagh Bridge site, the main entrance to the park. Parking should be available in the main park carpark (there is a charge for this).
See Course Map below:
Please collect your timing device from your club and be at the race briefing by 3:30pm (U16) and 4pm (Adults)

​
Runners will be allocated a time to be in the pre-start area where they will be given their finger timers and instruction on how to use them.
​
At timed intervals (possibly 30 seconds) runners in different grades will be set off. Runners will then run their respective laps (1, 2 or 3) and finish by inserting their finger timer in the finishing box if they are in the Junior event or for those in adult grades by simply completing their laps. ​
​
Live finishing times will be posted as people download their data - will those who start early hold off the later runners?
​
Due to the nature of the event there will be no
on-the-day entries.
