    Good Friday saw the last day of the challenge and a few of us met and walked up together sharing a beverage and snacks at the top to celebrate . It was a gorgeous day and the people walking were less frantic and more enjoying the day and the view . I am yet to completely tally up the final total but we will have gotten close to 6 times up Everest as a department !!! Not a bad effort and some good heart health happening . Thank you all for your donations

    We are all getting excited with the end looming and last night there was 6 people from Cardiology all pounding the paths !! I managed to see and capture most of us with the selfie photo's !! It was a pleasant evening not too warm or windy and energy and enthusiasm was high . All in all another great effort towards the end total . Thank you too all those who have donated already . If you are thinking of donating we are going until the 30th March with a planned group photo sometime on Good Friday ( 30th March) . Time and place will be posted and lets see how many we can get there !!

    So with the count down on until the end of the challenge we are looking great with a collective twice achieved and tallying up for the third challenge amount . It is such a great atmosphere on the Mount at the moment with people asking the number you are up to and seeing what are now familiar faces . We are facing our second cyclone tonight here's to a tail wind on the way up . Thank you to all those who have donated to the great cause . The last day just happens to be Good Friday maybe we should see how many we can get on the mount that day !!! One final sprint !!

    Yesterdays effort was a mix of professions with Joelene ( Respiratory Technician) joining me( Cardiac cath lab Nurse )straight from work . We enjoyed the company on our jaunt up the Mount and then bumped into Barry Kneale ( Cardiologist) as we headed down he was on his way up . All of us are aiming for the full 38 times . Joelene is at 26 Barry at 25 and I am trailing with 21 . Thank you all for your support and donations

  • Start of our second week

      19 February 2018

    Thank you to all those who have generously donated so far . At this stage we have a total close to 10 times up for those who are doing what they can which is spectacular . We are well on track to getting our target . I will gather the photos and put them here in the next up date . The weather has thrown us a bit of a mixed bag but that hasn't stopped those who have put their mind to the job !!
