The Essex Way Relay Race

First Sunday of September

7th September 2008


This race covers the 82 miles of the Essex way from Epping Station to Harwich Old Lighthouse in 10 stages. The route is mostly cross country and can be difficult through crops and across ploughed fields. Nevertheless it is a very enjoyable day out in the most attractive rural parts of Essex (with an excellent fish and chip shop and pubs waiting for you at Harwich). The course is NOT marked and it is essential for all competitors to have reconnoitred their section before the day to avoid getting lost. Bob Teer, Derek Atkinson and Dave Game have put in terrific work in writing up all the sections as Trail Runs. These are available below as a complete set (21 pages) in either pdf or Word for Windows format or individually in pdf format for downloading and printing.

Note the new design waymark shown on the left above. The poppy is the county flower of Essex and the new waymark is brighter and more visible from a distance than the old one.

The 'spirit' of the race is low-key, friendly and cooperative, all competitors should try to support other runners and call them back if they are going off-route and all supporters should assist members of other teams if necessary. If this ethos appeals to you and you would like to enter a team then Email Bob Teer
