“We are really pleased to be able to release these initial documents, with guidance for the Cross Country, Mountain and Trail disciplines to follow in due course.  These documents have been developed in conjunction with British Athletics, the other Home Countries and runbritain, and represent a huge step in the sport’s recovery from the COVID-19 crisis. Whilst a number of restrictions will need to remain in place to hold competitions within the current Welsh Government guidance, these documents will aid competition providers with their plans for safe and compliant competition for the remainder of the season.”

Rhiannon Linnington-Payne, Head of Competitions

• RETURN TO TRACK & FIELD COMPETITION GUIDANCE V1

• RETURN TO ROAD RUNNING & MULTI TERRAIN GUIDANCE V1

• RETURN TO OFFICIATING GUIDANCE V1

This is another important step towards the sport returning in Wales. Albeit there is still a long way to go, hopefully the guidance being released today will enable competition providers to start planning how they intend delivering competition in a safe and responsible manner.’
