Team WINDyFriday conquers yet another 24 Peaks Challenge

Sun, rain, hail, and…wind! The WINDyFriday team has conquered yet another 24 Peaks Challenge! ⛰️⛰️⛰️

 

Earlier this month, a group of our fittest colleagues from WIND and Friday & Co. Shipbrokers headed to the Peak District in the UK. Over 2 days, they covered 33 miles, tackled 24 peaks, and ascended a total of 13,000 feet.

All this was in support of The Seafarers’ Charity, dedicated to helping those who work at sea and their families.

This year’s challenge was marked by a mix of beautiful and harsh weather, creating a unique experience and the ultimate test of perseverance. The imposing mountains often left the group speechless, but the team spirit, stroopwafels, occasional sip of whiskey and the unlimited amount of poor jokes, made it feel like just a regular Sunday afternoon hike with friends (well, at some points!).

A huge thank you to everyone who supported the WINDyFriday team! There’s still time to donate to the fundraising page here: https://lnkd.in/ehnWET_U.

 

Your generosity is really appreciated 🙏

Who’s up for joining us or challenging us next year? It’s all for a great cause! 💪
