British Trail Running Championships
As the Trail Running Association represents Trail Running in association with UK Athletics, the TRA promotes and organises the British Trail Running Championships.
The official title of the Championships changed in December 2019 to align with UKA and BA's competition naming convention from UK Trail Running Championships to British Trail Running Championships.
Grants are available to the first male and female runners in each of the championship races who are TRA members at the time of the event. More information on Championship Grants is available here.
Note: No more than one British Trail Running Championship medal is awarded per runner. The first three men and women receive medals in the Open category, other medals are awarded according to age from 35 to 39 then in five year windows, e.g. 40 to 44.
Gold, silver and bronze medals are awarded when there are 8 or more runners in a category. Gold and silver medals are awarded when there are between 4 and 7 runners.
