September Preseason Training Camp

Top of Sugar Loaf Mountain

Each year OUCCC organises a Pre-Season Training Camp in mid or late September, a few weeks before the start of Michaelmas Term in order to get reacquainted with miles, hills and OUCCC. It's a fantastic trip and one that is highly recommended if you are new to the club and want to get to know people. It's a great way to kickstart your cross-country season after the long summer break and meet old and new members alike.

Training Camp will be back and better than ever this year and will be held between 17th-21st September 2026 in the South of Eryri National Park in North-West Wales. We will be staying at Corris Hostel in Corris, close to Machynlleth. It’s set to be a fantastic 4 days with great company, beautiful running, and lovely accomodation so make sure you don’t miss out!

Whether an experienced club member or an incoming fresher, all are welcome to attend what should be a fantastic week before the start of term. To secure your place on this year's trip, please contact the Club Captain or sign up directly with this link for freshers or this link for current members!
