Spanish Cross Country Championships
The Spanish Cross Country Championships ( es, Campeonato de España de Campo a Través) is an annual cross country running organised by the Royal Spanish Athletics Federation (RFEA) that serves as the national championship for the sport in Spain. It is usually held in February or March. It was first held in 1916 for men only and a women's race was added to the programme in 1965. A team element was present in the competition, decided by the finishing places of a team's top four runners. This was initially contested by federal territory, then by province from 1959–1985, and by autonomous community from 1986 onwards. An under-20 (''junior'') race was added for men in 1956 and a women's under-20 race in 1978. An under-23 (''promesa'') race for both men and women. A short race was held from 2002 to 2006 to align with national selection for that section at the IAAF World Cross Country Championships.

Cross Country Running
Cross country running is a sport in which teams and individuals run a race on open-air courses over natural terrain such as dirt or grass. The course, typically long, may include surfaces of grass and earth, pass through woodlands and open country, and include hills, flat ground and sometimes gravel road and minor obstacles. It is both an individual and a team sport; runners are judged on individual times and teams by a points-scoring method. Both men and women of all ages compete in cross country, which usually takes place during autumn and winter, and can include weather conditions of rain, sleet, snow or hail, and a wide range of temperatures. Cross country running is one of the disciplines under the umbrella sport of athletics and is a natural-terrain version of long-distance track and road running. Although open-air running competitions are prehistoric, the rules and traditions of cross country racing emerged in Britain. The English championship became the first national ...
