A group of 33 women from the Erindale Healthy Inspirations women’s weight loss centre climbed to the top of Mount Kosciuszko recently to prove they have what it takes to reach their fitness goals.
Reaching the summit of Australia’s tallest mountain was no small feat for the women who battled rain and wind the rise to the challenge.
Healthy Inspirations centre owner Debra Hestbeck said all the women rose to the occasion despite the wet weather.
"When we go to the top it started to rain and there were a few injuries on the way down from the wet and slippery conditions," said Mrs Hestbeck.
"Conquering Mr Kosciuszko was about more than just climbing a mountain. It was a major step to overcoming personal psychological obstacles. At the start of the climb many women were full of self doubt, believing they couldn’t make it up the mountain. But with each step they let go of their fears and gained a greater sense of self confidence, self belief and pride in themselves" said Mrs Hestbeck.
The event sponsors included Debit Success, Megaburn, Patto’s Grog Shop, Bubbles Corner and Erindale Meat Company.
