LONDON Duathalon 2007

On 3 September 2007 NKFC Trustee Gerald Dupuis participated in the London Duathalon in aid of the NKFC. The race consisted of a 9km run, 20km bike ride and 5 km run. The course has some serious hills. The first 9km is mostly flat to slightly downhill, the next 20km bike ride has many up hills and the last 5km run has one serious uphill and then is flat.

Total Funds Raised : $8,000 (with gift aid top up and £1,000 philanthropic matching from Lehman Brothers)

Building a school costs around $10,000 so we are almost there.
