Forty eight hours. Three gyms. Three teams. One goal.
After two successful years in Auckland — including a Top 100 Movember fundraising finish — Boulder Co. is taking its 48-Hour Climbing Marathon nationwide.
From Thursday the 20th of November at 2pm, all three gyms — Auckland, Hamilton, and Christchurch — will host simultaneous 48-Hour Climbing Marathon events, each with eight climbers living, eating, and climbing in their gyms for two days straight to raise funds and awareness for men’s health through Movember.
Each gym will feature a lively “Base Camp” set up in the centre of the facility, while progress is live-tracked on the Beta Bud app, showing each team’s virtual ascent of Mount Everest via a public leaderboard.
We’re aiming to blow the roof off donations this year, and already have some amazing sponsors, including Mons Royale, Butora, Inselberg, Bivouac Outdoor, Sea to Summit, and Black Diamond NZ.
If you want to learn a little more about the event and our motivations, you can check out our video from last year’s event at the Auckland gym below.
We’ll be sharing lots more info leading up to the event, including how to follow our teams, what’s up for grabs from our sponsors, and of course how to donate to this amazing cause.
