We’ve been watching and following along for the past few days, and now it’s confirmed. Chris Waddell has reached the summit of Kilimanjaro! His blog has this to say:
This just in… The summit was successful! This is wonderful news and we are so very excited.
Congratulations to Chris Waddell & the One-Revolution team on a successful summit of Mount Kilimanjaro!!!!
I’m sure we’ll get more information on this soon, but a hearty congratulations to Chris, who becomes the first person to summit Kilimanjaro without the use of his legs. I know it has been a long and challenging struggle for him, but it is an amazing accomplishment.
More as it becomes available.
