Team Computerminds achieved a top 5 finish in the Dynamic Adventure race endurance event held on the Malborough Downs. Scoring 880 out of 1000 points this was team ComputerMinds' highest scoring event. The event saw the team orienteering on foot and Mountain Bike for just under 8 hours.
Team ComputerMinds successfully completed the 2 day ACE race held in North Wales. The race saw the team running and mountain biking for 11 hours on the first day (including a night section).

ComputerMinds finished just outside the top 10 (in 11th place) which is not for the first attempt.
