Fraser Valley Cross Country Ramble 2026

The sixth installment of the Lower Mainland XC Series, scheduled for November 15, 2026, invites runners of all ages and abilities to explore the picturesque Clearbrook Park. This cross-country race offers an exhilarating mix of grassy meadows, muddy trails, and woodland paths that challenge participants while immersing them in nature's beauty.
For adult competitors, the course spans a total distance of 6.2 kilometers over three laps, providing ample opportunities to test endurance on varied terrain. Meanwhile, young athletes have their own dedicated courses: a shorter 2-kilometer loop for runners aged nine to eleven and a slightly longer 4-kilometer route with two loops designed for those twelve to fifteen years old.
The event promises an engaging atmosphere with separate start times tailored specifically to each age group. The open race kicks off at 9:30 AM, followed closely by the youth races beginning promptly at 9:35 AM, ensuring that all participants can enjoy their own finish line celebrations without any overlap or congestion on the course.
Runners should anticipate a mix of challenges and fun as they navigate through sections known for their muddy conditions. This unique feature adds an element of unpredictability to each lap, making every race experience distinctively memorable.
The Lower Mainland XC Series continues its tradition of fostering community spirit among runners while celebrating the natural beauty of Clearbrook Park. Whether you're a seasoned competitor or new to cross-country racing, this event offers an exciting day filled with adventure and camaraderie on November 15, 2026.
