Net to school: €32,635
We could not have achieved this amazing total without the involvement and dedication of so many people. Huge thank you again to the 8 cyclists and 40 hikers who participated in the event, to family, friends and sponsors for donating so generously and to the P2TP committee for all their hard work behind the scenes.
Our team of 8 completed the challenge of travelling from the lowest point in Ireland (the North Slob in County Wexford) to the highest point (Carrauntoohil) in 16 hours and 40 minutes. This was the first time that this challenge was ever attempted!
When they reached the top of Carrauntoohil shortly before 2 o’clock on Saturday they found 42 familiar faces waiting for them as many parents, staff and friends of the school also climbed Ireland’s highest peak on the same day.
It was a great occasion for all and thank you to everyone that was part of making Pedal to the Peak such a success.
