Peter Palmer Junior Relays

dsc_0082Well done to the team of Sam “Orange Souffle” Musters, Hannah “Jiu Jitsu” Garside, Gemma “Elvis” Cairns-Smith, Hannah “Huggies” Smith, Jasper “Mountain Rescue” Williams & Matt “Heartbreaker” Hartland who made up the Chasers team for this years Peter Palmer Relays that took place in Sutton Park last night. Get well/running soon to Heather Craig & Alex Smith who were unable to join us 🙁

For those who don’t know, the PPJRs are an annual, junior-only relay for teams of 6 that starts in the dark at 5am. Accommodation is provided the night before, & the relay legs are made up of 2 red courses, a light green course, an orange, a yellow &, finally, a green course.

Final results are yet to be confirmed, but it is confirmed that no-one retired or mispunched, & we didn’t finish last, & no-one disgraced themselves, either!!

Many thanks to COBOC with support from OD & HOC for putting the event on and not forgetting WCH for supplying the official albeit hopeless referee (Kelvin) for the 5 a side football – a good time was had by all!!

Next year, the relays will be in the South Lakes, but Hannah G will be too old to run 🙁
