A team of 6 athletes from the Masters Endurance Group represented Bedford & County at the 2023 Greensand Ridge Relay on Saturday. In hot and humid conditions, the team raced across 35 miles of trails, in 6 legs of varying lengths, from Leighton Buzzard to Northill village. Run in a handicap format, the club set off in 32nd place, well over an hour after the first team to start. Each team member (Ewan Wilson, Andy Blair, Tom Hayman, Charlie Palmer, Jim Black and Anna Folland) beat their handicap, overhauling slower runners in front of them to ultimately finish in 6th place overall, 2nd in the open category. The total time of 4hrs 04mins 24secs was the fourth fastest on the day.
