Mission Accomplished

Team Fibonacci has successfully completed the 2009 Kokoda Challenge in 22 hours!

Read all about the whole 96kms here.  And if that isn’t enough, checkout out support crew’s write up.

Why is Team Fibonacci?

Team Fibonacci is competing in the Kokoda Challenge in July 2009.  The Kokoda Challenge is a 96km charity bush walk around the Gold Coast hinterland with a 39 hour time limit that raises money for the Kokoda Challenge Youth Program.  It is done in teams of 4 who can have a support crew that will meet them at 5 checkpoints along the way for food, water and encouragement.  Team Fibonacci’s vague plan is to jog the down hill sections during the day, walk through the night and hopefully break the 24 hour barrier.

Who are Team Fibonacci?

Team Fibonacci is made up of a group of friends who meet at work a little over 8 years ago.  Back then we were all much more interested in drinking and fun than exercise and endurance events … ah, how times change …  Three of us completed the challenge last year as part of Team Insanity in a time of 26.5 hours, while our fearless leader finished in 30 hours the year before as part of Team Vodka with a couple of members of our support crew.

So who are the individuals…

Supporting Team Fibonacci

Our support crew is backing up from doing a stellar job supporting Team Insanity last year and is composed of Dennis Mellican, Jenesse Valentine and Matthew Moores.
