In short: A great team event, a secnic course and a weekend to remember.
In full: This event improves every year. It has world class runners, teams in fancy dress and even beginners taking part. It's a carnival, a festival, a team building experience and a joy to be a part off. If you run a company or captain a club and you want to build team spirit and find what people are really made off you will love this. 22 great runs all put into one and you forget all your worries for two days and leave it on a high. You also realise that all running clubs can be friends and should be. Every team supports each other. It's tough to get your team tactics right, but with a little bit of hard work you can do it and, by God you'll enjoy what you get back from it.

In short: A race, an adventure, a road trip and a pub crawl all in one
In full: This is not just my favourite race of the year, it's far more than that.
For starters, it's an organisational triumph; basically 22 consecutive races over one weekend.
Plenty of camaraderie as the convoy of cars and vans supporting the 30-ish teams progresses around.
Needs some preparation and well thought-out support from your team to get everyone to their races and pick them up again.
Courses are marked out, but it's sensible (and mandatory) to take your map - google earth has made it much easier to learn your route.
An unforgettable team experience.

In short: PERFECT - as always!
In full: Its not often that I'll be running across a field during a race and be tempted to stop and take a photo on my phone becuase it was so stunning, but the Green Belt Relay made me. And my husband on both his stages. Starting the Sunday run, while still stiff from Saturday was interesting, but i soon loosened up.
I organised a team for the first time this year, and with LOTS of pre-planning, it went like clockwork. Thanks to Sean and the team of Timekeepers for making it so easy.
Its not for the faint-hearted, but WELL worth the effort. I know the whole Little Feet Team agree.
See you next year......
