1env get muddy for Macmillan

BPCA member 1env Solutions sent a team along to the Nuclear Mud Race this year, raising just almost £2000 for Macmillan Cancer Support and the British Heart Foundation.

 The 1env team from left to right: Ollie, Jakub, James, Darran and Nik.

The five-person team took on the 12km off road course, held in Kelvedon Hatch on 18 May, wading through waist high mud, lakes and rivers.

As if that wasn't enough, there were 190 obstacles to overcome along the way such as monkey bars, zip lines, mud pits and the infamous ‘Deathslide’.

The 1env team completed the course in a time of just over 4 hours, slightly bruised and battered, having just managed to keep hold of their shorts.

Well done to all involved!
