The Traditional Elswick Good Friday Road Relays take place this year on 29th March, with the first race off at 10:30am.

The organisers have defaulted to the route used last year as there is still an issue of severe flooding on the original course.

This year the women's relay will be a separate race and the junior course has been extended slightly.

The only junior races this year are Under 13 Boys and Girls and Under 15 Boys and Girls. Everyone else 15 years old on the day of the race or older will be classed as a senior or vet.
