On 7th November 2020 I shall be attempting to cycle the hight of Mt Everest. 29029ft in one single ride. This is called Everesting. This should take me approximately 30 hours. Starting at 7am on 7/11/2020 and hopeful finish on 8/11/2020. I shall Be doing this in Trinidad and Tobago On a mountain called Morne La Croix. I shall be climbing the same climb approximately 22 times to achieve the hight necessary. I can not sleep but I can rest for short breaks to eat and hydrate during the entire challenge.
I am attempting this challenge in honor of my farther Christopher Downes, who sadly passed away from cancer. I promised him I would do what I can to help the wonderful people from the Macmillan team that helped him when he needed help the most.
Dad was a cycling enthusiast and I am sure would be proud if I can pull this one off and also be able to keep my promise of doing what I can for the Macmillan team .
I look forward to hopefully being able to tell you I was able to complete this challenge. It’s going to be a rough one!!!!
