Striguil Strikers Win Again
Well done to all Harriers who ran in the hot Cotswold Way Relay today - all our runners ran very well.
A Huge thanks to the team captains; Ivan, Gill, Dick and Andy Bray who put in a lot of time and effort to get their teams together.
The Strikers once again won the first mixed team so congratulations to the team: Matt, Ivan, Marianne, Steve Caldwell, Steve Harris, Matthew Lawson, Liz Francis, James, Kath and Rich Matthews.
The star of the day has to be Marianne who must be feeling light headed by now after winning a bottle of champagne for first female on her leg, and another bottle for breaking the course record! The only runner to break a course record today. Well done Marianne we are very proud of you.
Striguil Striders were 5th mixed team in 14:30 - congratulations to Mark English, Ed Green, Esther, Paul Lidgett, Jem, Nick Bttersby, Helen, Luke, Andy Ost and Gill Stott.
Striguil Strivers were just an hour behind in 9th place (15:35) with the team of Jakob, Neil, Stuart Akers, Andy Stott, Colin, Jan, Dick, Berta, Lou
Striguil Strivers came in 25th in 18:03 with Geoff Bayliss, Rob Brown, Vanessa, Chris Rees, Debbie (just made it!) Scroggs, Jane Bayliss, Elisabeta, Geoff Cram, John Thomas, Andy Bray.
Thanks you to the non – running supporters - Syd, Gill, Colin, Sian, Caroline and others.
Also thanks very much to those who came in or changed their legs at the last minute.
Rich Matthews agreed to run leg 10 for the Strikers yesterday – no time for a recce but directed by his team captain and members he came 10th.
Stuart Akers stepped in to cover Andy Creber’s leg 3 without a recce.
Chris Rees very kindly agreed to run leg 4 and John Thomas leg 9 - thanks both hope you enjoyed it?
Gill Stott changed her leg to cover Lorna and recced leg 10 on Wednesday.
Andy Stott volunteered to run leg 4 this morning!! On the way there; he changed in the car and had a great run. Andy stepped in for Nick who was held up on his way back from Washington but then ran leg 6.
Dick changed his leg numerous times to fit in with the team changes.
It was this flexibility that enabled us to have four full teams running today.
Full report to follow plus details of post race celebration.
