The Peak to Peak Mega Challenge was completed this weekend (16-18th June). The 17 team members that took part were all incredible! Pushing themselves so hard to get this three stage challenge completed. The weather was a big issue to combat over the weekend - with temperature of 26 degrees at times, followed by thunderstorms and heavy rain at night, making 12 hours of cycling across rough terrain, hiking up Kinder Scout and then canyoning down the other side difficult to say the least of it! 

‍

Over the weekend we have laughed and cried, battered and bruised our bodies, and pushed and pulled ourselves in so many ways both physically and mentally to complete it! Now I can say with HUGE pride that we did it!!! 35km completed in the following breakdown:

• 20km mountain bike along some of the most challenging gradients and gravel trails possible - summiting Mamtour (the first peak).
• 12km hike to, and then all the way up to 636m above sea level - summiting Kinder Scout (second peak).
• 3km descent down a mountain stream including ice cold plunge pools, an abseils down a waterfall and even a Belly-Flop-Off!

There will be a full recap video in a few weeks, but here are a few teaser pictures from the weekend to help portray the accomplishment, and celebrate everyone's efforts.
