My story
Well, we did it (mostly). Pretty terrible weather, and seemingly endless minibus travel between the hills, but an amazing team spirit helped us on all three mountains.
A huge thank you to everyone who donated, the organising team, and the other participants.
As a post script, since I set out to take part in this challenge, my Great Aunt Mary passed away from cancer. She was given some great support from Marie Curie, and spoke incredibly highly of them.
Mary was an exceptional, humble and kind person, and at her funeral asked that people did not get flowers, but instead made a contribution to the 3 Peaks challenge. I'd like to give a special thanks to all those that did, and dedicate this challenge to Mary's memory.

Within 24 hours, and unfortunatley without a helicopter, we will be climbing Ben Nevis in Scotland (1344m), then Scafell Pike in the Lake District and finally Snowdon, at around 3.30am ...
We are raising money for Marie Curie, helping them to carry on with the amazing work they do in ensuring that terminally ill people, wherever they may be in the UK, will have access to brilliant care.
A few of my HSBC colleagues are coming along also - http://www.justgiving.com/teams/bigadventure
I really appreciate any support that you can give, and will classify you as awesome for ever more if you make a donation!
