UK Relay League – top 6 finishes for SLOW

SLOW have finished in the top 6 overall positions in the final standings of the 2007 UK Relay League, for both the men’s and women’s classes, with the men finishing 5th and the women 6th.

The UK Relay league combines each club’s positions in the M/W21 open class in the four major Relay events of the year – the JK, British Championships, Harvester and Scottish Championships, taking the best 3 scores to count. Although SLOW did not compete in the Scottish Championships, our results in the previous three races were good enough to secure impressive overall positions.

The SLOW men’s team continues to show improvement, having finished 16th in 2004, 14th in 2005, 9th in 2006, and now 5th in 2007. Top 3 next year?!! For the women, this is our fourth consecutive top 10 finish, although not quite matching last year’s 2nd place finish (although that was when we had Heather Monro still competing for us!).

Congratulations to everyone who ran for SLOW in the relay teams at the various events.
