A strong team at the Southern and National 4-Stage Road-Relays

The Belles unluckily just missed out on medals in both the Southern and National 4-Stage Road-Relays. The A team finished 4th in both events, by just 9 seconds from bronze at Aldershot, 15 seconds from silver, and then at Sutton Park just 13 seconds behind Bristol for bronze. 

However, they were the only team to field three complete teams in the National race with the B team finishing in an excellent 12th place and the C team 19th out of 66 teams completing the course.  At Aldershot in the Southern race, the B team finished 14th and two members of the C team came and ran despite injuries causing an incomplete team.
