Phew... 14 hours, 79 climbers, 7 very tired belaying legends and 9148m later, we've finished our relay climb...and accidentally climbed 300m beyond the top of Mt Everest (which is only 8848m high). I guess our counting muscles had got tired too by the end of it too, but at least we weren't 300m below the top!
Huge thanks to all the climbers, the supporters, the sponsors, the staff at the Mill Adventure Centre who let us use their wall and kept us supplied with cheese toasties and cups of tea...
the 'justgiving' page is now set up here so please use it to find out more and support the project.
This picture is at one of our 'quiet' spots when we only had a few hours to go- I'm belaying one of our youth group who said she couldn't do the climb and then proceeded to climb the wall 40 times!
