Active Schools Virtual Family Cross Country Series March & April 2021<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/strong>It is usually around this time of year that children from across Moray are taking part in our Cross Country Competition. With the current lockdown we can\u2019t bring this event to you, but we are keen to continue to encourage and support children, young people and their families to be more active, more often.\u00a0 With this in mind we are launching our Family Cross Country Series taking place in March & April 2021. \u00a0This is FREE and is a series of 4 virtual fun runs that can be done in and around your local area, in your own time and the best thing is – you choose your own route and select the distance from those provided that you wish to complete. Suggested 800m P1-3, 1600m (1 mile) P4-7, 1600m (1 mile) or 3200m (2 mile) S1-6.<\/p>\n

This series will commence on the 8th<\/sup> of March with runners completing two qualifying runs before 1st<\/sup> April and 2 qualifying runs before 1st<\/sup> May (a total of 4 runs).\u00a0 As per the attached poster there are recommended minimum distances for the P1-3 and P4-7 age group (but participants can select either of the distances if they are perhaps new to running, returning to running or indeed want more of a challenge!)\u00a0 Every pupil that completes a run will receive an email participation certificate with those who manage all 4 runs receiving a series completion certificate. We will also showcase the participation figures per Primary School, Secondary School and School Cluster and then award schools with the highest percentage of pupils taking part as our \u2018Active Moray Virtual Cross Country Series Champions\u2019.<\/p>\n

Those families or individuals wishing to take part can complete registration via this link on our website:- http:\/\/sportinmoray.co.uk\/mcsh\/online-activity\/<\/a><\/p>\n

Runs will be verified by sending your Active Schools team a photograph you taking part or your route. Once you have registered you will receive a confirmation email with more details of this.<\/p>\n

There is no deadline for signing up, and entry forms will be accepted at any point throughout the Series.<\/p>\n

Throughout the series some top \u2018running tips\u2019 will be sent out in conjunction with our own local runner and athlete Kenny Wilson to help you along the way and encourage regular physical activity in the outdoors throughout the series. We really hope you enjoy the series and please do send us photos and stories of you and your families taking part and we will share this on our Facebook page.<\/p>\n

We are hoping to run another series for May and June taking us to the end of the school academic year.<\/p>\n

Thanks<\/p>\n

Rosalyn & Craig<\/p>\n
