Accumulator Challenge Inspires the "MoJathlon" for LOROS

News

26 May 2014

The MoJo team signed up to the LOROS Accumulator Challenge back in March, but have been so inspired by the work of LOROS, they have decided to continue their fundraising activities once their challenge is completed in June.

After discovering that a triathlon would be a tough test, they decided to take each event one step further and have set themselves three of the "dirtiest" challenges they could find.

In June they will be taking part in a 10K off road, mud track bike ride through the chase trails.

On 24th August the swimming event will involve a sloppy, smelly and very dirty snorkel through the finest bogs in Wales where they will all be pushing themselves to be crowned 'World Bog Snorkelling Champion'

Finally, they will end their triathlon by competing in a 5K Zombie Run, where they will have to survive Zombie attacks whilst navigating a multitude of obstacles.

John Young, Managing Director at MoJo Promotions said, “We feel honoured to be supporting such a worthy charity as LOROS. All of our team have got behind the fund raising ideas and we hope to raise as much money as possible during the next few months.”

Magdalena Korytkowska, Partnership Development Assistant at LOROS said, “It’s great to see how active the MoJo Team is and that they are prepared to move out of their comfort zones in aid of LOROS. Their MoJathlon shows exactly what fundraising is about – it’s not a piece of cake but it truly brings satisfaction. Good luck to the MoJo Team! I can’t wait to see their ‘dirtiest’ pictures!”

The team would love you to encourage them on their way by giving a small donation. Please visit their Just Giving page here
