Just before the summer Dorien started as the new chairwoman of the board of outdoor survival club Slopend, where she and Lars belonged to the incrowd for some time. Although this is not a full-time position it requires proper time planning, something that we can confidently leave to Dorien. Next to organising the running of the club, events, committees, budgets and other things there is still time to study, train and participate with events.
A large survival run was organised in Doorn, close to Utrecht, and Piet went along to support and take some pictures. This is a gruelling sport, combing offroad running with a large number of challenging obstacles, that require strength and technique. There were hundreds of participants, who were starting in groups of some 10 runners. The fastest athletes completed the 8 km course just below an hour, Dorien and Lars finished with the best in their respective categories, and were very satisfied. An impression is shown below.
