We love to say that MountCo is more than just a shop.
Our team has real experience out on the trails and in the mountains. They take on hard things and one of those experiences is the George 6 Peaks Challenge.
This past Sunday Mia, Daniel and David all took part in conquering this challenging event.
For those who might not know George 6 Peaks Challenge spans across 6 of the tallest peaks in the Outeniqua Mountains.
40km with 3300m of elevation.
This is a beast of an event.
All three ran and finished this extremely tough race. This is why visiting MountCo is different - Our team has earned their experience and we couldn't be prouder.
Well done Team MountCo

In what is becoming an annual trip for the team we got to enjoy .run again this year.
Never easy, but always fun!
Thanks for a lekker weekend🙌

Winter has a way of making almost every run start or finish in the dark. During these shorter days, a reliable headlamp quickly becomes one of the most important pieces of kit you own.

That's why we're so excited to have Petzl supporting the MountCo Winter Challenge. Complete the challenge and you'll go into the draw to win one of six Petzl TIKKA headlamps.

If you are looking to purchase a new headlamp or upgrade your current one, come and chat to us at MountCo.
