Bedford & County claimed second in the annual Greensand Ridge Relay on Saturday 15 June.  What is normally a hot and dusty mid-summer trail run from Leighton Buzzard to Northill village turned into a 35 mile cross country mudfest in the wind and rain.  Run in a handicap format over 6 legs, the team of Ewan Wilson, Ellie Garraway, Sean Crawley, Charlie Palmer, Henry Taylor and Oliver Wilson started 33rd, overhauling 31 teams across 4 hours of racing to finish an agonizingly close 1min 51 secs behind the winners. Thanks to Andy Blair for logistics support on the day.  We’ll be back next year to try to go one better.
