XO RACES

XO RACES COMES TO WORCESTER

This exciting new concept has been taking northern cities by storm

XO is returning to Worcester!

In teams of two, tackle your own running route through a landscape of stunning architecture and cultural landmarks on this urban orienteering experience. Nail your strategy to max your team’s points haul on a series of secret challenges amongst the checkpoints.
If that’s not enough, it’s all hosted out of a fantastic Basecamp venue. With just 50 team spots available this is sure to sell out. Make sure you’re part of the latest event to be added to the Worcester City Runs weekend!
