Lichfield Running Club’s men’s team were out in force at Sutton Park for the Midland Road Relays, putting in a strong performance across all legs in a very competitive field.

The team of James Pickering, Chris Benson, Ben Stanaway, Matt Allan, Ed Coppinger, Mitchell Smallman, Liam Chawner, Wayne Asprey, Stephen Rivers, Morgan Bradley, Phil Radnor and Ryan Simms all ran well and kept us in the mix throughout. Unfortunately, somewhere along the way we briefly invented our own course… and the result didn’t count. Let’s call it creative navigation. Plenty of positives to take though — strong runs, great team spirit, and a reminder that we’ve got real depth in the squad. On to the next one!
