Harvey's 1000km Challenge

We undertook the '1000km Challenge' on Sunday afternoon with each year group responsible for completing 200km towards the total. Boys completed their kms (around 20 per person) by walking, biking, running and rowing. Superb House Spirit was shown by all to complete the challenge in 2 hours and 37 minutes. It was a great effort and some other houses also joined in. Groups of juniors cycled up to Upokongaro and back to complete their share, but we would particularly like to acknowledge the juniors who put in mammoth shifts on the rowing machines and the three students who ran a half marathon. We were joined by Micky and his parents, Marcus and Georgie, who both chipped in with a few kilometers each. We ended up go well beyond our target distance and clocked up around 1530km - a sensational effort.
