These titles represent not only an enviable PR title but also bragging rights that last for a full year.
TEAM ENTRY
You will nominate a Team Captain who organises the initial entry “Relay Team Captain” and payment of the team entry fee. They will need to create a password and give this to the other team members so they can register under “Relay Team Entrant”. Team Captains should notify us of any team changes before the 21st of April. Simply email us with details of the runner pulling out and we will cancel their place so that another runner can enter.

Location
Directions
Milton Keynes Central is the main railway station and the most likely one that you'll arrive at. It is however, approximately four miles away from the stadium and therefore a taxi ride from the rank directly outside the train station is a very likely bet. The nearest railway station station to MK Dons' Stadium:MK is Bletchley.
Skyline 01908 222111 is a local taxi firm.
