Huge congratulations to OBs Alex Tait (Tees '06), Perry Alexander (Tees '10) and Tom Catterick (Tees '09), Michael Young, Will Welch and Mark Wilson who all took on The Speed Project to raise money for The Wooden Spoon Charity. Which is a charity deeply rooted in the rugby community that does incredible work to ensure children have the best opportunities in life, no matter their background. Alex Tait said: "The amount we put our bodies through, running with little to no sleep for 36 hours, put it up there with one of the hardest physical challenges I've done. But to then combine that with having to read maps, devise strategies last minute, and navigate through narrow streets in a nine-seater camper van made it a huge mental effort too!" Perry Alexander added: "Competing alongside ultra runners as complete beginners was an interesting challenge, especially in the gruelling 38-degree heat. Despite the harsh conditions, pushing alongside a solid group of guys was great. It felt good re-igniting the competitive spirit for this challenge."
