Paul and Pankaj will be taking part in the Lake District Triple Challenge UK organised by Barclays.
The challenge over one day involves ;
- Climbing to the summit of the Old Man of Coniston – 10km, 803m approx.
- Mountain biking through Grizedale Forest, one of the Lake District's most famous mountain biking areas, including the lung-pumping ascent of the hill into the forest – 12km
- Kayaking around Coniston Water – 1.5km – approx.
We will be raising money for the chosen charity Centrepoint. This charity provides homeless young people with accommodation, health support and life skills in order to get them back into education, training and employment.

We will be pushed to the limits to complete a course that sees us bike, hike and paddle with other Barclays colleagues across UK locations, on this triathlon-style charity fundraising challenge.
