Ottawa to host 2021 and 2022 Canadian Cross Country Championships
ACXC set to return to Abbotsford in 2023
 
Athletics Canada announced today updates to host cities for the next three editions of the Canadian Cross Country Championships following approval from Athletics Canada’s Competitions Committee.
 
Marking the first time in Canadian history, Ottawa will host the 2021 Cross Country Championships on Nov. 27, as well as the 2022 event. Abbotsford, B.C., will be the site for the 2023 Championships.
 
The event was previously scheduled to be held in Abbotsford in 2019 and 2020, before shifting to Ottawa for 2021 and 2022. The 2020 event in Abbotsford was cancelled as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic last August.
 
Athletics Canada officials engaged in consultation with local organizing committees in both Ottawa and Abbotsford, as well as BC Athletics and Ottawa Tourism, in the process of allocating this important race weekend for the next three years. Upwards of 1,000 competitors descend on the host city every year to compete in the Canadian Cross Country Championships.
