EPPING FOREST OUTDOOR GROUP
The first teams start to arrive back at High Beech Village Hall at about 1am. The atmosphere in the hall starts to build up as check-cards are collected and times entered onto the computer. Drinks are made for the usually hot and sometimes exhausted competitors, and amid the bustle there is an attempt to keep the levels of mud brought in down! At about 5am, witth many of the competitors having completed - breakfast is served. There is still the cleaning and tidying of the hall to be done after the competitors leave, and meanwhile the tents are taken down from the Forest and the those Group members that have spent the night out arrive back to have their breakfast!
