teams/solo/vet.... (if you can prove you are a team of vetarinarians/animal doctors you can race as vets !??!?)

I really enjoyed the big dog last year and I'm definitely up for more similar races. It would be good to put a few teams together, so count me in !

I've done loads of adventure races at Pippingford - nice little venue.

I'm supposed to be going to Portugal some time around easter but if I'm here them I'm definitely up for giving it a go.

Looks like fun I think Im free that weekend

I'm free that weekend at the moment, would be the first event of this type for me.

Looks a good un, I'd be up for joining a team if anyone would have me.
