BRISTOL & West AC will be out in force to defend their men’s and women’s titles at the Avon 5k Road Relay Championships from Cleeve Cricket Club.
“We have a lot of runners out but we are keeping it low key and we are mixing up the teams to get a good competition,” said team boss Mike Down.
“North Somerset AC finished very close to us last year so if they have a strong team it could be close again. But it will be a nice gentle start to the autumn.”
Down is mixing up the senior men’s squads into the following four man teams – A: Jarleth McKenna, Ben Robinson, Mark Edwards and Luke Evans; B: Rob Stewart, Will Christofi, Ciaran McQuade and Adam Speake.
Recent Easy Runner athlete of the moth winner Jessie Sanzo (pictured centre) heads the women’s team which also includes Jasmine Finney (pictured right).
