Cotswold Way Relay Run

Phil Warry says 'Once again I shall be organising a BOK team (teams?) for this year's Cotswold Way Relay, which takes place on Saturday 25 June. The relay runs from Chipping Campden through to Bath Abbey using the waymarked route of the Cotswold Way. The race comprises 10 back-to-back races starting each stage with a mass start at the expected arrival time of the 1st runner from the previous stage (or considerably earlier than some of us finish the previous stage!) The route is over 90% off-road, taking in many hills, woodlands, fields and tracks, all offering spectacular views of the countryside around. The stages vary in length (from between 7 to 13 miles) and ascent to offer a differing flavour for each runner in the team. There are no marshals on the route, so route finding is all part of the spirit of the event. We only managed one BOK team last year but in previous years we have had 2 teams, so hopefully we can do so again this year. Further details about the race are given at www.cotswoldwayrelay.co.uk. So if you would like to take part, put the date in your diary and let me know.
