SCC Cross Country

The SCC Cross Country is a forest run in Berlin at the Julius-Hirsch-Sportanlage in Westend. Two clear cross-country courses are offered: 4 km for U16 to adults and 9 km for U18 to adults, both races start in the morning. The run is intentionally simple and targets club runners, youth, and adults who want to run short off-road rounds, which is distinctly different from the large street races in the city. The course runs over paved and unpaved forest paths, where rhythm, clean footwork, and a fast finish are more important than scenic views. Awards are given to the top three in each age and gender category, as well as a prize for the fastest final lap for men and women.

For SCC members, the start is free. Late registrations are possible shortly before the start for an additional fee. There is a results archive documenting the race. The event takes place at the Julius-Hirsch-Sportanlage on Harbigstraße in Westend, Berlin-Charlottenburg. Typical November weather is around 7°C with rainy days. Forest run on paved and unpaved forest paths, entry costs for non-members, late registration against fee, weather in November approximately 7°C, rainy.
