Let Open Adventure put a Spring in your step with some fantastic upcoming events!
Spring has definitely sprung, so it's time to kiss goodbye to that slow soggy trudging and get some speed in your legs. Why not enter the last in the Haglöfs Open5 series for some gorgeous, fast, sunny racing in the Lakes, or perhaps the SILVA10 trail race the night before. Or both? Why not...

Haglöfs Open5 series results so far
It's tough at the top, and the Haglöfs Open5 series has seen some fantastic battles. Will it be Ant Emmet or Olympic silver canoe medalist Campbell Walsh to take the male solo win? Scour the results so far. The categories are far from sewn up, however - why not turn up for the last in the series at Coniston and see if you can upset the apple cart?

Series finales at Coniston
The Open Adventure stomping ground of Coniston plays host to the final races in the SILVA10 night time trail race series and the Haglöfs Open5 series. Come along on April 5th and 6th and make this finale truly grand. The routes will be fantastic as they're being planned by local and highly experienced competitor Ant Cooper. Race the trail 10k on the Saturday night and/or the Open5 adventure race on the Sunday. What a top weekend!

And finally...
For those of us who love a good bit of armchair AR, we hope you've been following the New Zealand GODZone expedition race. Stu Lynch (current AR World Champion), who recently returned home after a long stint of UK racing, raced with Team Seagate and took the win. Our own Sabrina Verjee, raced with Team Moxie Racers. The team retired when one of their members broke an ankle. Sabrina joined Merrell Alpha Pack (with UK racer Tobias Mews) and finished the race in 5 days 20 hours. Let the spirit of adventure live on!
