By Rob | September 23, 2015

Thanks to our captains for the following reports from the road relays, held at Sutton Park. Also, thanks to Ninj and Fiona for the photos.

Fiona:

The Sutton Park Road Relays took place on Saturday 19th Sept, where Sphinx had two ladies teams and one men’s team running. The weather was a bit on the hot side but all three teams did so well. It was great to see the team cheering each of our runners up the last stretch to the finish line. We would have definitely won the award for the loudest support team. Thank you to all the cake bakers, they were excellent, its the men’s turn next to make something but we could be waiting a while for that to happen 🙂

Wayne:

I decided to take a look into the Mitch Timm’s book of navigation and promptly got us well and truly lost about 1 mile from the park entrance , luckily Andy on leg one had about 10 min’s to get to the start, thanks to everyone including the ladies who again put out two teams for representing the club. And a special mention thanks and well done to Lee for running today , and I speak on behalf of everyone at the club I’m proud to run with him and wish him all the best in his continued recovery
