Washburn Valley Relays

The Washburn Valley Relays are organised by Otley AC on an invitational basis and consist of three legs (one runner per leg) based around Fewston and Swinston Reservoirs. My club KCAC entered four teams for last Friday's event, and I ran the second leg in a team with former world mountain bike champion Karen Ballentine and Pet Shop Pete. The second leg is the longest of the three but still only around 3.5miles. It is very fast and furious albeit with a sting in the tail climb back to the changeover point

Karen ran a great first leg, I ran around a minute faster than last time I did the relays in 2008 and Peter had a very decent run for us to end up with a total time of 1hr21mins15secs and a position around mid-way up the results table

There are some photos here and the results are here
