Peterborough the destination as Three Counties Running Club members participate in Green Wheel Relay




Three Counties Running Club fielded two teams in the Green Wheel Relay at Peterborough.

The event is a seven-stage race starting and finishing at The Athletics Arena, Bishops Road, Peterborough, covering a total distance of 50 miles and finishing at the outline of the Green Wheel.

The Green Wheel cycle route provides over 45 miles of continuous, sustainable routes around the city of Peterborough.

Opening in 2000, it was one of the first large-scale projects delivered by Peterborough Environment City Trust (PECT).

Although aimed at cyclists, the route is equally good for running.

This race has been designed as a team event, with the intention that members of the team (or non-runners) support each other.

Whilst instructions for each stage have been prepared, the course itself is unmarshalled, other than at the changeover points where times will be recorded.

A total of 47 teams overall made the event as competitive as ever this year.

The Here We Go Again team was made up of Lauren Day, Joely Apps, Samantha Pritchard, Debbie Agger, Tracy Else, Tracy Adams and Sarah Melton Whitelam with Zoe Gourley providing bike support.

Their total time was 7:19:01.

The Between A Walk And A Hard Pace consisted of Matt Hunter, Sarah Lamb, Colin Apps, Daz Hind, Kim Coultard, Andrew Hooker and Frances Salter with Steve Whitelam providing bike support.

Their total time was 7:28:59.
