The Outlaw South Downs Relay from Beachy Head to Chilcombe. Ran 3 legs out of 16, as one of 6 members of the Ranelagh Vets team of 6. 7.30am start for Leg One Beachy Head to Jevington Church: 4.5. miles (29:55) Fairly comfortable, not too hilly, didn't get lost because we all started together and I was able to keep in the leading group; Leg Seven Saddlescombe to A283 east of Adur: Officially 5.25 miles, plus an additional 3/4 mile getting lost (42:25). I ran the entire route with just one other person. I was 20 secs in front of him all the way, but I stopped 4 or 5 times to wait and ask directions. We both took the wrong route in the last mile or so and had to run at least an extra 3/4 mile; Leg thirteen: Officially 6.25 miles but think I ran a fair bit more, including an extra hill! Three very big hills (59:23). Legs extremely stiff at finish, due to sitting around between legs. Very enyoable day. I would definitely like to take part next year, but it's essential to recce the route in advance to avoid getting lost. My official total distance over the 3 legs was 16 miles but I actually ran a few miles more. The total team time for 96 miles (plus a few extra miles!) was 12:30:43.
