This was an unusual relay in that it was effectively four separate 10K races with the combined results put together at the end. So the second race or "leg" started before the first race finished, so no one new the standing of their team. Having said that, it made each "leg" feel like a proper race. Barlick had a good day finishing 1st ladies, 1st men, 1st mixed with the vets taking second place. It was also good to see so many "social runners" out racing and what was interesting is that they put on a damn good show.
The Barlick teams finished as follows:
1 Barlick Leg Ends: Barrie Charnley, James Austin, Ian Cocks, Ben Whitehead (1st Men)
3 BFR Pub Run Mixed: Emma Taylor, Jac Collins, Zac Kaye, Andy Collins (1st Mixed)
4 Barlick Vets,: Jock Boothman, Andy Smith, Andrew Driver, David Pease (2nd Vets)
10 Barlick Ladies: Molly Ralphson, Heather Driver, Paula Cullen, Emma Pease (1st Ladies)
19 BFR Mixed Allsorts: Eve Boothman, Jamie Fox, Leanne Dinsdale, Sean Fitzpatrick
24 BFR Social Runners: Jackie Bonsall, Maggie Bugler, Jayne Lee, Daren Holdsworth
29 Quad Squad: Hayley Whitehead, Marie Beech, Amanda Holden, Megan Worswick

A flatish lapped route of the Etihad Stadium Campus saw Richard Shilton take a couple of minutes off his PB.
