Sunday October 26th saw Jenna Hornett (Operations Manager) take on the grueling ‘Tough Mudder’ course and Matthew Thorne (Development Director) run the Great South Run for the second time.
Tough Mudder is a 12 mile obstacle course designed to test all-around strength, stamina, teamwork, and mental grit. Tough Mudder is Probably the Toughest Event on the Planet. Probably! “The idea of Tough Mudder is not to win…but to have a story to tell.”
The Great South Run is a fast and flat 10 mile route that takes in the iconic sites of the Portsmouth Historic Dockyard including Portsmouth Cathedral, Spinnaker Tower and the HMS Victory- which has played host to the Band of HM Royal Marines, who often perform for passing runners at the iconic site. The final flat stretch along the sea front has given thousands of people the opportunity to get a personal best time for more than twenty years.
Datasym would like to congratulate Jenna and Mat for completing their respective events and wish them well in preparation for next year! (On the same day, Chris Jones (MD) jetted off to Portugal but went through the whole ordeal with Jenna and Mat in spirit…)
