England Athletics Virtual Relay, January 2021

England Athletics joined the virtual relay community with their own inter-club competition. Individuals had to run their own 5 mile course and provide evidence from a GPS device such as Strava. There was then one team per club with the fastest 4 men and the fastest 4 women counting.

They chose a tricky time of year for fast running, with snow and ice making it difficult to find a time when it was safe to let yourself go! However, 6 Claremont men and 4 ladies still managed to get out and form a team. It may not have been the fastest squad ever assembled in sky blue colours, but it is the taking part that counts!
