From the Spinneys Dubai 92 cycle challenge, through to triathlons, runs and more, Nick has raced 15 events with his severely disabled son to raise awareness about special needs and family fitness, and also simply to share some magical moments together. But it became bigger this weekend as Nick and Delphine’s daughter, Tia teamed up with her big brother on the Giant Duathlon – a run-bike-run event at Hamdan Sports Complex. Nick says, “It was absolutely fantastic. We had set up Team Angel Wolf for the while family to get involved in these events, but it was really special for us that Tia was keen to have a go.” Tia, aged nine, and 12-year-old big brother Rio got round their course, two 750m runs and a 6km bike ride in a time of 39 minutes.   Read the original story at: Nine-year-old girl takes part in Giant Duathlon in Dubai with disabled brother
