  22. Our first day of team training went well! At roughly 11am on Saturday we set off from the Plume of Feathers pub in Princetown and headed towards Burrator via a number of tors. The route saw us take on a bog, two river crossings and a couple of very steep tors. You can see our GPS tracked route here: Track #6 | Author Kevbaz | free Mobile GPS Tracking Service All in all it went very well – no injuries to report. Not a blister in sight. But a couple of lessons learnt… Waterproof boots aren’t actually waterproof (despite it being written along the side of my boots!), avoid bogs at all costs (almost doing a face-plant into knee-deep mud, although funny, is not an ideal thing to do!), and finally if you put your mind to it, you can accomplish anything. We finished in great time and realised our fitness levels were higher than expected. our site is now updated and has pics from the weekend etc thanks
  23. Indeed the last of the true footballing Gents, what a guy! RIP Bobby
