This year the Dorset Coast Path Relay is on Sat 28th June.
It would be good to put out a SOC team this year.
We need someone to step forward and take on the position of Team Leader/ coordinator.
Also if you are interested in taking part please let me know.
Legs vary in distance from 1 or 2 miles up to 8. It is up to teams to decide how they divide the route up. There are various access points which determine many of the Changeover points but some clubs field large teams and often split the longer sections up using more runners.
Teams also like to field Sprint/Hill Climb teams who help move the Baton along quickly where change overs are at the foot of a climb.
Teams also need to have 1 female runner per 6 members of a team. So a team of 12 will need 2 females e.t.c.
You can sign up to run the legs or to be part of a Hill Squad where you will only run 50 or 100m at a time all be it usually up hill.
The even is great fun and does bring out the team spirit!
If you would like to take part and also if you would like to coordinate the team please let me know!
Look up the 'Dorset Coast Path Relay' on the internet for more information!
