Maprun Christmas Challenge concludes – next event in Caldicot on Wednesday

28 people took part in the Christmas Challenge, which involved running different MapRun courses across Gloucestershire and beyond; seven did enough to earn a coveted chocolate prize.

We were surprised at the dedication of a few runners, who managed two, or even three, runs back to back. They will get a bigger prize! It’s pleasing to note that the distribution of runners meant that all 37 of our courses had at least one visit, with the Speech House MapTrail being particularly popular.

The Christmas Challenge will return again in December, it will be “more” of the same – we’ll allow more time, and by then will have many more courses available to run. That’s all still a long time away, but our events will continue throughout the year. If you need a fix, please come and join us at Caldicot this Wednesday (8th Jan) and Tewkesbury on Wednesday 29th January!
