Just a week to go in the Mount Everest Challenge and the second member of the Cucumber team to complete the challenge is Dean Wood who completed his 38th ascent of Mauao last weekend.
After starting relatively slowly, Dean decided to finish more quickly by ascending 5 times in a row.
Jael King is the first of the Cucumber team to complete the Mount Everest Challenge - she actually reached 38 by the end of February and is well on her way to Everest again! A few of the team are close to the summit and on track to reach it before 30 March.
Jael King is the star of the Cucumber team. 15 days into the challenge and she has already completed 23 ascents - at this rate she'll be finished in early March!
Some of the Cucumber walkers took on the Mount over the weekend despite the rain and humidity. We're keeping a track of progress in the kitchen at work.
Jodie, Dean, Jael, Matias, Ryan, Peter and Nick are the Cucumber team intending to climb Mauao 38 times in 50 days. We'll report on our progress here during the 50 days.
