    Cucumber reached a grand total of 200 climbs in 50 days, 7 of us climbed on the final day of the 50 and then celebrated with a great breakfast.

    Thanks to everyone who walked, whether you did just 1 or the full 38 and thanks to everyone who donated.

  • Cucumber has officially COMPLETED the Challenge

      11 April 2019

    Our target was 190 climbs in 50 days and this morning Aidan was the one to chalk up the 190th. A great effort by all and we're now aiming for 200 with a group walk tomorrow morning.

    We're still ahead of schedule with 31% of our target of 190 ascents completed in 28% of the available days. With the weekend coming up, we're hoping to hit 40% by Monday.

    Peter is already half-way to his target of 38 climbs.

    So far, 9 of our team has registered at least one climb of the Mount (we just moved office at the weekend so a couple were tied up with that).

    We're at 28 of the 190 target and if you're mathematically inclined ..

    Days elapsed: 12%

    Ascents completed: 14.7%

    Aidan completed our first ascent of Mauao today. It's very humid out there so not an easy day to start the Challenge
