Midland 4- and 6-leg Road Relays

The club sent teams to represent the club in the annual Midland Road Relays at Sutton Park, Birmingham, Saturday 20 September 2025.

The men’s team finished 66th overall out of almost 100 teams, with Tom Barlow, Jamie Hartnoll, Dan Bazzard, Oliver Wright-Jones, Tim Brock and James Endicott recording a slightly faster overall cumulative time than the CLC Striders team did in 2024.
