Mount Everest Challenge Done!
29 March 2018Finished with one day to spare!
38 climbs of the Mount - same height as climbing Everest!
It seemed easy at the start but as real life got in the way and my right knee played up it became difficult to get there and ended up a bit of a grind but I was committed to finish and finished strong with a climb straight up the old King of the Mountain Track!
I don't think I'll climb the Mount again this year. Hiking off-track in the Kaimais and not seeing anyone all day is now much more appealing than dodging the crowds on the path that often seems to narrow!
All for a great cause and I often thought about my sister and mother both lost to cancer and I'm proud to have raised $300 for the Waipuna Hospice - couldn't think of a more deserving cause!
