The winning borough will be revealed after Sunday 6 December and crowned the champions of the first ever London Youth Games Virtual Cross Country.
Cllr J-F Burford, Sports Champion, said:
"The London Youth Games Cross Country event usually sees thousands of young Londoners descend on Hampstead Heath to determine the capital's fastest runners. Sporting events have been hugely affected by the pandemic and so it's great to see the London Youth Games adapt and go virtual.
"The cross country event is a fantastic opportunity for young people who are missing sport to get involved in some fun and healthy competition! Good luck to everyone taking part - I hope to see Richmond upon Thames at the top of the leader board!"
