AS PART of the annual Ten Tors event, the Holsworthy Moorland Training Group’s 55-mile team participated in the challenge, amongst two other teams, the boys’ 35-mile and girls’ 35-mile teams.

The team consisted of three brothers — TJ (team leader), Mitch and Reece Acres, with Emily Shepard, Lilli Day and Cameron Hillman. Setting off at 7am on the Saturday, the group were going for the biggest challenge and a distance that meant sore legs, feet and backs were almost guaranteed.

The team rose to the task and put in a fantastic effort, returning to camp as a complete team and still smiling at their finish time of 3.08pm.
