This year Ashmore's Challengers have split into three teams to simultaneously take on three 'triathalons' in three locations :

Team Americas will take on the Catskill Mountains

Team Asia will conquer Siem Reap

Team Europe will complete the SAS Breacon Beacons training

On the weekend of the 13 September, each team will travel to their respective challenge locations.

At sunrise, each team will start the Challenge with the first discipline, either cycling, trekking or kayaking, depending on the location and terrain. They will then complete the two disciplines in succession, racing against time to finish before sundown.

All in all the the teams will cover over 160kms in one day.

Please support the teams to help them reach their mammoth fundraising target of £30,000. Every pound raised by our Challengers will be matched by Ashmore Group plc.

All the proceeds will be donated to charities supported by The Ashmore Foundation.

The Ashmore Foundation is a not-for-profit grant making foundation that utilises Ashmore's skills and resources to support community-based social development initiatives in emerging market countries.
