CROSS COUNTRY RUNNING
| During the winter months, Peninsula Track focuses on training for Cross Country racing. The Vancouver Island Athletics Association (VIAA) NO LONGER HAS A CROSS COUNTRY SERIES. But Pen Track still holds a small cross country race in October. In addition, Peninsula Track athletes compete in the various school cross country series.
