Races

We compete in aΒ variety of disciplines, including track and field, road running, off-road (cross-country, multi-terrain, and fell), in organised leagues, championships and open events mostly around North-west England and North Wales.

We organise several road races and a schools’ cross-country series.

The John Driscoll Road Running Championship

This Championship is to honour athletics stalwart John Driscoll’s contribution to both West Cheshire Athletic Club and the wider world of athletics. It is open to all WCAC 1st claim members aged 15 or over at the start of the championship year. Age-graded scores will be given to members who compete over different distances from 5K, 5 mile, 10K, 10 mile and half marathon. The winner will be the person with the highest score over three different distances. They will receive the Driscoll Memorial Shield, kindly donated by John’s wife Ann.

More details about John and the John Driscoll Road Running Championship are available here.
