Ipswich Jaffa Ekiden Relays July 2018

Once again the relays were run on one of the hottest days of the year which made running conditions extremely hard but all three teams pulled together and produced some great results.

It was a lovely club day out with everyone supporting and helping each other and, of course, lots of laughter and banter along the way.

There were 80 mixed teams all covering the marathon distance of 26.2 miles with our “Hooligans” finishing 4th in 2.42.49, ” Hopefuls” 15th in 3.17.19 and “Hotshots” 17th in 3.19.07. That’s pretty good going.

The distances in leg order are 7.2k, 5k, 10k, 5k, 10k and 5k.
