Ten things Kilimanjaro taught me

  • Human beings universally have an unwavering determination to conquer the impossible and triumph over the most daunting challenges 
  • High altitude workouts will challenge you to the very edge of your physical and mental capabilities
  • No matter how fit you are at sea-level, elevation can make you question any athletic confidence you had in yourself 
  • No matter how painful or hopeless a situation seems, it is finite and will eventually pass
  • Nature is glorious and creates unparalleled grandeur and magnificence 
  • Six people and six days in difficult circumstances is all you need to create friendships that last a lifetime
