Ridgeway Relay – 16th June

A fantastic relay following Englands oldest road 86 miles from Ivinghoe Beacon to Marlborough.  With 10 legs through the AONB Chilterns and the North Wessex Downs, you can be sure you’ll see beautiful countryside and a hill or two.

It’s been a popular with Harriers over recent years and we’ve regularly run several teams.  2017 was our best result yet, with three teams competing and our ‘A’ team coming 3rd overall in a field of around 40.  2017 race report
