Over 300 runners took part in the CBRE Property Peak Challenge last week, racing up the Heron Tower’s 850 stairs for industry charity LandAid and the Worshipful Company of Chartered Surveyors.
Teams from the across industry, including British Land, CBRE, Cushman & Wakefield, DTZ and our own Estates Gazette competed to be the fastest up London’s tallest building.
The event, the first of its kind, is expected to raise over £50,000 for partners LandAid and WCCS.
The fastest team up the tower was CBRE with a combined time of 21 minutes, followed by DTZ, Monty’s Zimmers and Team James. Robert Skioldebrand from Montagu Evans won fastest male veteran scaling the heights at 5 minutes 40 seconds and Rachael Beaumont from Russell Cooke claimed fastest female at 6 minutes 20 seconds.
LandAid chief executive Joanna Averley said: ‘The event is a brilliant example of how the resources of the property industry can be brought together for the greater good and to help disadvantaged young people meet their potential.’
