Lauterbourg Cross

The meeting is staged in Lauterbourg, in the Bas-Rhin department of the Grand Est region of France. The precise start and finish area is set by the organising club and confirmed in the information sent out with entries and on the performance67 entry page.

French cross country meetings normally require either an athletics licence or a day licence bought with the entry, especially for the licensed age group categories. Check the entry page or ask the organiser which applies to your race before you sign up.

The long cross of 9 km is the main distance for older runners. The cross court and the athletics school and poussin races are for the younger age groups and are not open to senior athletes.

Grass and earth in late November are usually soft, so cross country spikes or a trail shoe with real grip are the sensible choice. Bring a spare pair of shoes and warm, dry clothing for the periods before and after your race.

Yes. Cross country courses loop back on themselves, so spectators can usually see runners several times from the start and finish area without needing to move far.
