Cycle, Ride, Run or Walk for Mount Kenya!
Whether you're going to make it to the event or not, you can do your bit to raise funds for the Mount Kenya Trust over the weekend of 16th to 18th February. Registered Competitors are encouraged to ask friends and family to sponsor them in their chosen race, but even if you're not going to be on the mountain you can still help through the Virtual 10to4 Challenge. Just pick a main race - Extreme, Wild, Classic, Rush or Slide - or a mini race - Enduro, Hog, Dash or Scramble - and then get your bike out, saddle up your horse, put your running shoes on, or lace up your walking boots and join the fun by cycling, riding, running or walking the distance of your chosen race .... wherever you are!
Or send an email to 10to4Registration@MountKenyaTrust.org
