Yorkshire 3 Peaks Challenge · 9 September 2011
So we completed the Yorkshire 3 Peaks Challenge last weekend in a time of 11hrs 58mins which was amazing considering we set ourselves the target of 12hrs.
The entire trek was far more harder than we expected but was also an amazing experience at the same time.
In total we covered 25.4 miles and climbed over the entire day 4987ft (higher than Ben Nevis!)
A massive thanks to Martin Hannon and Alan Taunton for organising and making the whole event such a fantastic experience. Overall between the 3 of us we've currently managed to raise over £5,000k for our chosen charity Epilepsy Research UK.
If anyone feels that our efforts deserve an extra donation or two then this page is still active. It might also help ease the pain of my 4 toenails which are currently black and look set to fall off! Nice.
This whole trip was in memory of a very special girl, Sophie Hannon and I know she would have pissed herself laughing watching us trying to climb these 3 mountains.
Thank you so much to everyone that has contributed.
Sam.
