Green Belt Relay 2023 – Join us as a reserve runner!
Less than two weeks to go before the Green Belt Relay on 13th to 14th May! Whilst we have already selected our teams, booked our vans, and have stages assigned to all our 33 runners, we could do with a couple more reserves in the squad. This is a reminder that we have a waiting list for those who might be able to join us for the weekend of 13-14 May in case someone withdraws.

Based on past experience, there are normally a few unfortunate drop-outs due to injury or illness, some only a few days before the event. Therefore, we welcome you to join our reserve list if you’re free that weekend. It is worth putting your names down even if you’re just a ‘may-be’. We welcome runners joining our reserve list up until the day before the event.
As team organisers we will decide who to promote to the team. This could be based on operational reasons (e.g. if one of the drivers drop out, we are likely to call up a reserve who volunteers to drive), or if we are missing runners from a particular category (e.g. Vets). We will invite someone to join the team as soon as there’s a need to do so, so the new joiner has as much time in advance as possible. You don’t need to pay the entry fee to be on the waiting list – you will only be asked to pay if you receive the invitation from us.
