The Mount Everest challenge results are in...

HCC's 3rd Strava challenge involved attempting to collectively scale Mount Everest in the month of February. I am amazed to report that we didn't climb Everest just once, nor twice, nor three times. Between 33 participants, we managed to scale the world's highest mountain 3.88 times in February! What a feat.

In total we climbed 34,327 metres through running, cycling and walking. Runners and walkers climbed 10,816m (122%) whereas the cyclists managed 23,511m (266%).

Well done to everybody who took part. I'm not sure we battled Everest-like conditions but we certainly had our fair-share of snow and ice to compete with. A special shout-out to Alex Siegmund who managed to climb Everest by himself on his bike!

Stay tuned for the fourth and final Strava challenge which will lead on nicely into the season!
