Ridgeway Relay

The Ridgeway Relay is an off-road summer race that we encourage more club members to take part in.

How it works

The Ridgeway Relay is a team relay organised by Marlborough Running Club. Teams run the length of the Ridgeway in ten sections of 5.4 miles to 11.0 miles. The route leaves The Ridgeway itself some 2 miles before Overton Hill and continues across Fyfield Down to the finish in Marlborough.

At least two of the legs must be run by a female runner. For women's teams, up to two legs may be run by a male runner. The route is scenic, hilly and off-road.

Teams are responsible for their route planning and support on the day, and we strongly advise that you recce your leg in advance!

We organise as many teams as we can, and the club pays for entry to the race.
