The Cross Country Tour is divided into three levels – Gold, Silver, and Bronze – each of which has different levels of competition and different prize offerings.
The Gold-level meetings award extra World Athletics Rankings cross country placement points, which can be used to earn automatic qualification into the 10,000 metres track race at the 2025 World Athletics Championships.[1]
The Tour is also seen by some as a way to prepare for the 2024 European Cross Country Championships.[2]
