The 2023 road relays will be held at the Northern Gateway, Colchester on Sunday 16th April 2023.
Entry forms have been sent to all Essex affiliated clubs with the entry deadline of Sunday 2nd April
- For 2023 we will have U13, U15, U17, Open, V40, V50 and V60 age category races.
- All members of a relay team must be EA registered for that team to count in the Essex champs. If any member of a relay is not EA registered then that team is a non-scoring team and you should enter them as such.
- Runners are not encouraged to run in more than one team but we recognise this may be necessary where there are late drop-outs and the club wishes to complete a team. This is permitted but runners can only run in the Essex champs once and so team managers should declare before the race which team is in the county champs and which is not. Failure to make the declaration risks both teams being removed from the championships.
- In addition, we have been in collaboration with Suffolk AA and the event this year will be combined with them, bringing the best athletes from each County to race competively in their respective championships.
- The event will be chip timed, enabling faster, more accurate results to be available on the day
- There will not be a need to submit team declarations before the event. Team managers will be sent a link, post event, whereby it will be their sole responsibility to enter runners’ details correctly. Team managers will have one week to submit details before the results are finalised and sent to Run Britain.
