Green Wheel Relay

Green Wheel Relay Held on 2nd June 2024. 7 stage running race starting and finishing at Peterborough athletics track. Second claim runners are allowed.

The Green Wheel cycle route provides over 45 miles of continuous sustainable routes around the city of Peterborough. Opening in 2000, it was one of the first large scale projects delivered by Peterborough Environment City Trust (PECT). Although aimed at Cyclists the route is equally good for running. This race has been designed specifically as a 'Team' event, with the intention that members of the

team (or non runners) support each other. Whilst instructions for each stage have been prepared the course itself is un marshalled, other than at the changeover points where times will be recorded. As indicated above, the course lends itself to cycle support; indeed on stage 5 which includes a short section of the old A605 (Oundle Road) this is mandatory. The plan is that the majority of teams will finish within a short time frame. Accordingly start times will be allocated at 15 minute intervals between 7am and 10.30am. Start times will be notified on receipt of team entries which require predicted times. Changes to team members will be accepted up to the start of the race. This years race is organised on behalf of the Greater Peterborough Athletic Network GPAN, a network of six local running and athletic clubs. The start and finish being held at the Peterborough Athletics Arena.

Message from March AC runner Luke, who was taken ill at the track on Sunday.

l Just want to thank everybody for their kind messages and their help on Sunday. I really appreciate it. I'm home now and I feel much better than I did Sunday, just a bit tired. I can't remember anything that happened which I've been told is a good thing😀.
Thank you again and well done to everyone involved.

You really don’t need me to tell you that it’s been warm today and another hot day is forecast for tomorrow.

Please ensure you take suitable precautions, are well hydrated and slow down if needed to minimise effects of the heat. There is shade on some parts of the course, so please take advantage where possible and to stay out of the sun if yu can whilst waiting for the handover. There is water at each of the changeover points and hopefully the support cyclist will be carrying some as well.

Take care
