HARRIERS SPORTS CHALLENGE TEAM TRAIL RACE - 25th JUNE - 7.00pm

Just a reminder that the event is fast approaching and we need all names in the hat for team selection.

As there is no Harriers Trail Race scheduled for the end of June this year for obvious reasons, the above Challenge Race has now been setup for all Harriers and also any of their families or friends who wish to participate, the more the merrier.

The "race" will be run by teams of 3 , though not as a relay but as a coherent unit ðŸ˜ƒ which will participate in some sports "challenges" set up to test any skills which have been possibly lying dormant or which will even be discovered during the course of the event. The team will be "clocked" In for the challenge only when ALL the team members have arrived at the challenge point and are ready to go.

In order that the teams can be evenly balanced names of the participants will be drawn from a hat or hats on the evening of the event. Each team will start at a separate challenge point,and then run round the Tor Trail  for the next challenge, which when they have completed they will then run round the Tor Trail again and so on till all the challenges have been completed.

The total running distance will probably be approx  5/6 miles maximum and the challenges about 10 mins each, with each team member being an active participant in every challenge. At each challenge points will be awarded according to the team performance and of course points mean prize 's so so it is certainly not all about running.

The evening  is about having fun trying out the different sports challenges and having a" laugh" while doing so.

 As we have the function room for our sole use for that night there is also the possibility of a "Caberet" after the "race" which is being looked into at the moment. Hopefully this should be able to go ahead, more on that later.

Again as we have the whole function suite available feel free to bring along any friends or family to either participate in the Challenge of just to join us for the evening as hopefully the bar may be open for a fine social occasion.

Finally if you are now fired up and ready to go for glory please add your name to the list Alan has set up using this form for this event, your team needs YOU  in it to win it. List of entries received.
Any questions regards this event just ask myself or Frances, though not about any of the challenges which will only be revealed on the night but I can assure you are well within the scope of all the Harriers.
