PEAK THREE DEBRIEF | INNOVATE

Qualification is secured; a race well run.

Just a warm-up for what’s to come.


All that training has certainly paid off.

Are you ready to step purposefully into the arena and run the next leg?







Final Peak Debrief

 

There were a few hairy moments back there, points where I wasn’t entirely sure we’d make it. Surfing that bomb wave back on in²⁵ was akin to battling a blizzard and losing our bearings, which really brought home just how tough this climb has been. The advice to trust your instinct and be decisive certainly paid off.


But OMG… we’ve only gone and done it!

What an exhilarating, emotional rollercoaster of a ride.


The innovation phase was always going to be the toughest, I know that from hard-earned experience, but guided by clarity, driven by ambition and fuelled by determination, we’ve made it. Idea commercialised, job done.


It’s been an honour to sherpa and share your journey, I appreciate you placing your faith in me.


Now, it’s only fitting we return to Jim to wrap things up. I’m hoping for something motivational, inspiring, and unmistakably intrepid. Jim, over to you…


“Awesome job everyone, what a team. This summit is only the beginning. When you’re ready for the downhill black run, I know a route down the Supercouloir… if anyone fancies it?”
