Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

WHY??!!

Me and five of my mates will be taking on the National Three Peaks challenge towards the end of may in aid of Orchid Cancer. Orchid exists to save men's lives from testicular, prostate and penile cancers through a range of support services, pioneering research and promoting awareness. I'm personally taking up the challenge to raise awareness for cancer in males as well as to improve my personal fitness and prove to myself that I can accomplish any goal if I work hard enough. 

What is the National Three Peaks challenge?

Walkers climb each peak in turn, and are driven from the foot of one mountain to the next. The three peaks are:

• Ben Nevis (1,344 m or 4,409 ft), the highest mountain in Scotland
• Scafell Pike (978 m or 3,209 ft), the highest mountain in England
• Snowdon / Yr Wyddfa (1,085 m or 3,560 ft), the highest mountain in Wales

 

The total distance walked is estimated at 42 kilometres (26 mi) or 44 km (27 mi), with a total ascent of 9,800 feet (3,000 m)
