Minogue Park - XC Club Champs Course

Event History
We have used the Minogue Park since the club’s inception in 1928 with a few years except in the late 70s & 80s.  There have been various course changes over the years. In the late 60s, for example, the Centennial Pools (now Waterworld) were built smack bang in the middle of our course. It was a good running course then (with a heap of high fences) as is our current course.  Yes, it does get a bit wet during the rainy season, but, hey, that’s cross country.  Merely running the course, we are steeped in history. The current course was designed by Gordon Speirs in the mid-90s, with only minor changes since.
