| 2018 Trail Race Results |
More than 60 runners tackled the 12 mile course of the inaugural Noah’s Challenge event through ‘Constable Country’ on the Suffolk border. They started at The Ark and visited The Bull, The Hare and Hounds and The Red Lion (sadly closed at the moment) before returning to The Ark with their ‘animals’. A further ten people ran 7.5 miles before accepting a lift back from The Hare and Hounds. Run under a non-competitive TRA licence the event and the parallel Charity Wail is expected to have raised over £950 for the Ipswich Group of Riding for The Disabled. Special thanks to MEC member Cliff Wetherup for marshalling and also donating a prize for the draw. Prize draw winners will be notified on Tuesday.

The annual easter series started with a long queue, temperatures soared into the 20's, the sky was blue, the fields were green (and yellow) the birds sang and we ran out of water and instructions (almost).
Let me know of any issues with your time or spelling of your name at "events@midessexcasuals.org.uk", thanks for your support and i hope to see you over the next few days.

The promise of prizes certainly drew a good crowd for the final event. The overall winners were Sean, Andy and Simon, Lynn, Melissa and Sarah, Mel and Craig, well done to them and to the rest of you for your support, and of course to keiran and the team for being such excellent hosts
Those of you who didn't collect your prize on the night will have a (slim) chance of picking it up at our next event on Apr 7th, after that it will be donated to your favourite night trail organiser!

PHEW! thats it for this year, the last of the night trails is over, on a very pleasant night Sean, Andrew and Bill and Simon filled the mens podium with Lynn, Melissa and Jenny taking the ladies honours in the long route
in the shorter route andy made a welcome return with a fast time and wendy and mel once again shared the top ladies spot. Apparently the magical number 8 only showed itself to a select few of the competitors

The melting of the Rivenhall glacier turned the enclosed path into an enclosed river but I didn't have an abbreviation for that! The most technical route so far didn't seem to cause too many problems
Lucy and Will took the honours for the short course and andy, melissa and lyn on the long course, the unmentioned bonus clipper was found by a few, only one more to go before the light evenings.

A lovely bright winters day greeted the runners in the fifth braintree boggle marathon, a hard frost firmed up the mud and led to new record times for winners, James Bosher by 7 minutes and Steph Jiggins by 16 minutes. Congratulations and thanks to all the participants who completed the tough course and for their support and all their kind words afterwards. Special thanks are due to the volunteers, some for the second time in as many weeks, without whose help these events could not take place.

An excellent trail to start the year, thanks to all the ladies for refreshments, a great venue well worth the donation of the race proceeds for refurbishment, hopefully we will be back (as Arnold said?)
Well done to family Ferguson for winning both races between them, and well done to Lyn for making it a Mid Essex Casuals clean sweep
