There were few places to hide from the scorching heat of the British Summer as the runners ran the length of the Cotswold Way in the 17th running of this relay event. The Dursley vets team held on to last years 3rd place despite running some 23 minutes slower. This had less to do with advancing years than the furnace like conditions.

Offa's Orra 2010
No Fear for Wood in Offa's Orra
Dave Wood had an excellent run coming in 22nd overall in the Offa's Orra, 3rd MV45 with a 1:37:05.
Offa's 'Orror is a 20k multi-terrain race, mainly on footpaths and forest trails. There is less than half a mile of road. There is 1,600ft of climb so it is a bit tough! Notice lack of road and hills, hence Mr Wood's entry! With a field of 209, he was just outside the top 10%. The winner completed the course in 1:25:21 withe the last finisher in 3:03:30.

The officially-measured half-marathon course (13 miles 192.5 yards) is run on way-marked trails laid out by the Forestry Commission. Over 2300 runners entered this race.
Haydn Smith continued his good from in races despite popping in and out of hospital between races, he was first home in 156th place in 01:35:22 ,Tony Freer was 176th in 01:36:28 ,Paul Wellings and William Peacocke nursed themselves to the start line after some niggling injuries and were 286th in 01:41:11 and 1252 in 02:10:04 repectively. All agreed that it was a very challenging run plenty of ups and downs both in trems of geogrphay as well as mentally and physically, with the recent wet weather making some sections even harder work.
