Junior Challenge 2019

The Junior Challenge is a road race (fun run) held annually by Watford Harriers at Cassiobury Park. This is open to all children in primary school and secondary school years 7-9. This is also regardless of ability and a great opportunity for athletes to represent their schools in a competitive event. We have two races in the following age categories: U8s & U10s-U14s. 

The date for the 2019 edition is Saturday 30th March. If you have any queries, please contact our School Liaison Officer, Ross Connor at slo.watfordharriers@hotmail.com

We have chosen to support local charity, Peace Hospice Care this year. If every participant raises just £5 for them, it could pay for 200 hours of healthcare assistance, supporting patients’ emotional and practical needs at the most difficult times.
