2019 IAAF World Cross Country Championships

The 2019 IAAF World Cross Country Championships were facilitated in the city of Aarhus in Denmark. It was the 43rd version of the titles and was hung on 30 March 2019.

A piece of the course was sudden spike in demand for the grounds and grass top of the Moesgaard Museum. The race was held in testing conditions, because of the extremely sloppy course and steep slopes. The senior men’s race was won by Ugandan Joshua Cheptegei, while the senior ladies’ race was won by Kenyan Hellen Obiri.
