The Namibia Desert Insurance Challenge 2008 · 19 December 2007

The King’s Trust supports 11 to 30 year-olds who are unemployed or struggling at school to get their lives on track. Many of the young people we support are in or leaving care, have been in trouble with the law, or they are facing challenges such as homelessness or mental health issues.

Story

Thank you for visiting my fundraising page, now let me tell you about what I'm going to be doing, I've been lucky enough to be chosen by Allianz to join a team of four to complete  The Namibia Desert Insurance Challenge 2008.

The race will start on the 18th April, where we will have to travel across the 140km stretch of the formidable Skeleton Coastline off South West Africa.  The race will involve four activities lasting up to 9 hours per day over four gruelling days;

Day 1 – Trekking 18km, Day 2 Cycling & Abseiling, Day 3 – 60km Cycle, Day 4 - 20km Run

I have now completed the challenge and as a team we came 6th out of 9.   You will be able to read about our efforts on a web blog in the coming weeks - watch this space!

Thanks for your support & contributions......................Chris
