The Royal Marines commando spirit and ethos are at the heart of everything this world-famous corps do – and in particular team work. On October 10 and 11 2015, teams and individuals have the opportunity of testing their grit, determination and most of all their sense of humour against the Royal Marines endurance training course near to the Commando Training Centre base at Lympstone, Devon, in the name of charity.
Participants must be over 16 and will be able to opt for one of three challenges: a 4k fun, 10k marine and the testing 17k endurance. The event really does have everything you could want in this truly authentic military training course used daily by this elite corps.
The funds raised go to the Royal Marines Charitable Trust Fund (www.rmctf.org.uk) who support the serving and retired Corps and the Devon Air Ambulance Trust (www.daat.org).
If you believe you have the right state of mind to enter the 2015 Commando challenge, then log on to www.commandochallenge.co.uk to pick your event and register online today to avoid disappointment.
Alan Hardy, Event director and former Royal Marine, CCT Team Charity Events.
