Awarding

Stage winners will receive their prizes as they finish.

Team prizes will all be awarded in the Bath Rugby Club once input and verification of results has been completed. We hope that as many of you as possible will make it to the finish of Stage 10 to welcome the end of the race, and to the Rugby Club bar afterwards for our teamly celebration.

Kings and Queens of the Cotswolds

This prize is awarded to those who have competed in all 10 stages of the Cotswold Way Relay in differing years. Our first winner was one of our most long term event supporters:

Team Prizes

As usual, team prizes will be awarded to the winning team in each category. So, its…

Senior Men

Ladies

Male Vets

Mixed (remember – 3 ladies required (non-runners may be considered ladies))

The choice of prize is at the discretion of the organisers.

Stage Prizes

The prizes are awarded to strongly reflect the proportions of runners entering. Stage Prizes are likely to be awarded to the following positions:

1^st Male

2^nd Male

1^st Lady

2^nd Lady (provided Ladies entry is large enough to warrant)

This is simply as we have twice as many males running as females.

The choice of prize is at the discretion of the organisers.

Stage and Race Records

We have a full record of these over the years, however the course does vary as route improvements are introduced. Generally, if the stage is made longer by modifications, former records do not stand unless there is only a small difference in distance and a large difference in record time. If the stage becomes shorter, former records will stand.

Full race records will stand regardless of modifications, as the overall length is probably about the same over the years, and the time differences between standings is normally quite large.

T-Shirts

Are available for all participants. This year we feature the Tyndale Monument, North Nibley, which you pass in Stage 7 (the one with the steps up through the wood). Click HERE for a preview of the design. The t-shirt is red this year.

The t-shirts are part of a rolling collection documenting differing features of the course over the years. Since 2003, this has covered:

2003 Broadway Tower (Stage 1)

2004 Mileage Stone, Chipping Campden (Stage 1)

2005 The Market Hall, Chipping Campden (Stage 1)

2006 Bath Abbey (Stage 10)

2007 Mileage Stone, Jenkins Farm (Stage 5)

2008 The Market House, Dursley (Stage 6)

2009 Somerset Monument, Hawkesbury Upton (Stage 8)

2010 Dyrham House (Stage 9)

2011 Tyndale Monument (Stage 7)
