Dan Halliday

Dan is an up and coming member of the squad. With a background international orienteering he is already proving his navigation and logistical skills, along with a turn of speed both running and biking.

Since 2008 Dan has clocked up many individual race wins on the UK scene, whilst continuing to improve his skill levels across many of the other disciplines involved in AR. He turned this to good use with his first expedition style adventure race, in which he finished 2nd.

More recently Dan has turned his attentions to Stage racing and in 2011 was Captain for the first time at the adidas Terrex Coast To Coast. He led his brother Matt and Maria Leijerstam to team victory in the countries most prestigious adventure race of 2011.
