On 27 September, I am will be taking on the Yorkshire Three Peaks Challenge. 

The Yorkshire Three Peaks Challenge takes in the peaks of Pen-y-Ghent, Whernside and Ingleborough.  The aim is to complete the walk in under 12 hours.

The walk covers a distance of 37.5 km (23.3 miles) to 42 km (26.1 miles) (depending on the route) with nearly 1,600 m (5,249 ft) of ascent and descent.

A service that costs £60,000.00 a year and is fully funded by fundraising and donations.
