Vigilance target ABF's Rifle Run

On 14th April a Vigilance team of 5 will compete at the annual Rifle Run near High Wycombe, supporting ABF The Soldiers’ Charity. The event promises to be a well-matched test of physical fitness and marksmanship, all in the name of a great cause.

Captained by COO Ed Mills, enthusiastic sharpshooters George Waterfield, Will Fox, Thava Thiagarajah and Seb MacKenzie-Wilson will be running a 10km cross country course at E.J. Churchill's award winning shooting ground... or rather, the team runs 10km if and only if all targets are hit. For every missed shot, our five runners incur extra penalty metres out on the cross country course.

The Vigilance team is very much hoping not to live up to its name 'Vigilance Moreover-than-Under' by keeping the ground covered and ammunition wasted to a minimum! But no matter the final kilometres covered, our intrepid runners are hoping to raise as much money as possible for ABF The Soldiers’ Charity, and its excellent work in support of the soldiers, veterans and families most in need.
