It would be great to have as many teams as possible racing in this idyllic 4-leg relay around Oxford, encompassing the River Thames and Christ Church Meadow and beginning and ending at Iffley Road track where Roger Bannister ran the first ever sub-4-minute mile. Each leg is approximately 7km in length. Further details can be found on the Facebook event page.
