This time last week I think I’d experienced every emotion.., excitement, nervousness, pain, the feeling of failing, growth, team work, strength and most importantly determination.
I never thought climbing 2 mountains (or 2 peaks) and walking 18 miles could teach you so much about yourself, others and the power of a team.
I know if I hadn’t of had team members, not just a fellow Ascender but also mates from Twende, I would never have been able to power through my inner demons, pain barriers and self doubt to make it up the 2nd peak.
The #learningonthewayup couldn’t be more true!!!

What a legend, fun walking companion, and all round tough cookie. You did amazingly, and inspired your Twende mates to press on too. X x x
Great picture too.
That ‘hill’ behind you was the swine that I walked towards for 45 minutes convinced it was peak 2… Which it wasn’t…
Peak 2 was the one you are stood on.
I reserve a special disdain for hills that pretend to be something they’re not.
You smashed this, because you could, we had faith in you, and you put the demon to bed in the process. I can’t describe how much you inspired me, showing how perseverance can get us through the toughest situations.
We’ll be on top of Killing soon 😀
Spell check 😂 Killi soon….
