8-10 May 2020
Due to our Cross Country event being cancelled for 2020, we have decided to offer our community the option to participate in a Virtual Cross Country.
A Virtual Cross Country involves you completing your run on your own course either by yourself or with a family member and uploading the run to the 'Strava' running app between May 8-10 2020. Information on how to enter is below with suggested training schedule emailed to College families.
If you would like any more information please feel free to contact the Year 7-12 Sports Leader Michael Thomson for more information: mathomson@bne.catholic.edu.au
How To Participate
Step 1:

Step 2:
Find a way to track your run and upload it to Strava. This can be done by downloading the Strava app to a phone and recording the run on this device OR by tracking a run on a smart watch (ie Garmin, TomTom, etc.) and linking that app to Strava.
Step 3:
Join the StAC Virtual Cross Country group on Strava. To join, go to: https://www.strava.com/clubs/stac2020
Step 4:
Sometime from May 8-10, complete your run/walk at your required distance and upload it to Strava. You can include a photo of you completing the run (we may share these to our social media with appropriate media consent).
Step 5:
Results will be collated and sent out to all competitors. All students that competed will be able to download a certificate.
