Ten MSTC athletes took part in the Ragnar Relay, a 177-mile relay from Sittingbourne to Brighton following the coast.
Seven men and three women, along with two mini buses, took part with each team member running three legs varying from about four to eight miles per leg.
The team took just under 24 hours to complete the course although four legs had to be suspended due to severe weather conditions especially on the cliff top paths.

It was a real test for everyone but was incredibly satisfying to overcome all the hurdles and win their category.
