Prep School

At Barnardiston Hall Prep School, cross-country running is more than just a sport—it’s an adventure. Our young athletes embrace the rolling countryside, tackling terrain that builds endurance, resilience, and a true appreciation for the great outdoors.

With a rich tradition of competitive running, our school fosters a spirit of determination and teamwork among pupils. As a result, several of our athletes have achieved county representative honours over the years. Whether training on our scenic trails or competing in inter-school races, every runner is encouraged to push their limits, set personal goals, and support their teammates along the way. To foster this goal, all pupils participate in the Inter-House Cross Country Championships at the beginning of the School Year.

Barnardiston Hall’s commitment to fitness and outdoor activity ensures that cross-country running remains a highlight of our sports programme, helping students develop confidence, perseverance, and a lifelong love of running.
