Exciting New Social Event - Club Trail Race

24th July 2010

---

Another fun Club event: “The Trail Challenge”

Date: Saturday 24th July 2010

 This event is suitable for all Seniors regardless of level of ability as clear thinking counts as much as speed. Also, it is meant to be a fun social event rather than being taken too seriously.

This is a “race” over approximately 5 miles, following written instructions. As with the Run/Row, you will be allocated a partner at random! The idea is to complete the route, which is predominately cross country, as quickly as you can (without getting lost!). There will be a small prize for the fastest “Pair of Hares”. Being first back does not mean being fastest as you will be starting at 5 minute intervals to stop a certain amount of cheating! However, you need to be back for Pub Closing Time (your first clue!).

All participants must ensure they have a working phone in the unlikely event that you get lost or need assistance. Pairs of Hares finishing separately will not have their times recorded – so you need to stick together.

We will meet at Toppesfield Bridge at 3pm and the finish is somewhere close by. The overall distance is about 5 miles.

If you are interested, then please let either John Norman (Mens XC Captain) or Deb Stewart (Ladies XC Captain) know asap.
