STUDENTS from Matravers will be taking part in the Ten Tors challenge this weekend, walking up to 55 miles over Dartmoor in self-sufficient teams.
Matravers has entered teams for all three distances of 35, 45, and 55 miles. The Ten Tors Challenge is organised by the army and teams visit the ten nominated tors. The teams must be self-sufficient, carrying all that they need to complete their route in safety despite the terrain and the weather. 24 students from Matravers have been training since January with day trips and weekends away to prepare them for all eventualities. You can find out more about the challenge, and watch the progress of the teams over the weekend, at http:// events.exeter.ac.uk/tentors
