Calling all long-distance runners

Mo Farah’s 5,000 and 10,000 metres Golden Double at the London Olympics led the way – and now you’ve got the chance to emulate him.

Sutton Sports Development is looking for boys and girls aged from 11 to 17 years old to take part in the London Youth Games Cross Country Championships on 17 November.

The races, ranging from 2,000 to 4,500 metres, take place at Parliament Hill on Hampstead Heath and are part of the London Youth Games in which young athletes from every London borough compete in a range of sports.

Entry is free and every competitor is provided with transport to and from the competition and a Sutton T-shirt to compete in and keep.
