Fwd: CompassSport Competitions - 20th Anniversary Nordisk Adventure Silkeborg, Denmark - Mountain Marathon - 28th/29th May 2022

[Alun Jones]

Hi All

It's not entirely clear.  But the email below seems to indicate that I have won an entry into a mountain marathon-type race in Denmark.  I am not interested in it.  Anyone from TVOC fancy the place?  First come, first served.

Dear All,

We have 4 entries to this event available still. The organisers have been very generous.

You did not say specifically you would like to win this prize but if you would like an entry and can get yourselves to Denmark, then get back to me and you can have a free entry.

Indeed if you are aware of others who would likely be interested, please ask them to get in touch.

Many thanks,

Best wishes,

TVOC members, please don't let Richard's cynicism put you off.

This is a genuine offer of an entry to the Nordisk Adventure race in Silkeborg, Denmark.  Mountain Marathon may be stretching it, but it is a long distance orienteering race in a hilly part of Denmark, and mountain Marathon is probably the best English term to conjure up in your mind what will be involved..

I hope someone in the club might be interested in taking up this offer.

Final chance guys.

No-one has expressed interest in this free entry to the Silkeborg race.  I will write to Nick Barrable tomorrow to say I cannot find anyone interested in the free place

So if you want this place, please respond to me ASAP
