London Triathlon 2013!



We are incredibly proud of our colleagues from LOLA Staffing and TORO Crew who competed in the London Triathlon last Saturday with some great results! They swam, they biked and they ran really really fast in the spectacular Virgin Active race concentrated around London's ExCeL Centre. Racers from LOLA, TORO and the Concerto Group companies helped raise over £8k (so far) for The National Brain Appeal. This great cause was definitely worth every ounce of effort!
