Sunday, 9 May 2010, 08:00: Masters Classic Relay ×
Venue: Trentham Memorial Park

2009 details (2010 tbc):
Details:

This is a great 5-lap relay race, traditionally for the more senior of members of the club. Its mostly on flat grass at Trentham Memorial Park (saves our somewhat older joints a bit).

Categories/prizes for men, women, mixed, teams with aggregate ages of 250 and 300 or more.

There is a walkers event too which covers 3 laps of the 4k course as opposed to 5 for runners.

This year the event has a ‘pre-vet’ category which allows teams to have a member in the 30-34 yr age group and also an open category for teams with members less than 30 yrs of age. So basically it’s now an all comers event. Entries need to be in by May 5th.
