Our Races

Hook Norton Harriers proudly present two races each year to raise funds for the club and provide fun, includive events for all running abilities. Our summer race is a 6 mile road race which is included in the Oxfordshire AA Grand Prix. Our winter race is a hilly, mainly off-road, 7 mile race offering a tough test to any runner. We actively encourage fancy dress at this more informal event.

The famous Christmas Canter is on 15th December 2019 - thank you to all the runners who entered this year, smashing our entry record - in just 89 hours we SOLD OUT! 

The Christmas Canter is a chilly, hilly, mix of road, field and trail over a scenic 7 mile course. Competitors are encouraged to wear fancy dress (entirely optional!) and are rewarded with mince pies, mulled wine (water also available!) and much festive cheer. A superb way to round off the running year.
