Hercules Trophy debut: straight onto the podium
On 27 June, Gumption entered a team in the Hercules Trophy for the very first time. Ambitious, yes, but mostly there for the fun of it. Well prepared, though – credit to captain Daphne. And we made it straight onto the podium. People have made headlines for less …
So, how did we pull it off? The Gumption way: with a 360° mix of skills, strategy before execution.
Determination that delivers.
Disc golf: The instinct to hit the target, with just the right sense of timing… even when the project(ile) suddenly takes an unexpected turn. No time for analysis paralysis.
Truck pulling: Shoulder to shoulder and just keep pulling.
Velodrome: Keep on pedalling until we drop.
Rescue 911: No stretcher too heavy, No emergency too big.
Heatwave? Bring it on! Fun? Check. Podium? Check. Third place out of 64 teams.
No gumption, no glory.
We’ll be back. And who knows… next time, we might even come with a goal. A big thank you to the fantastic Hercules Trophy team for an unforgettable day.
