Frank goes to Kili
Three Generations climbing Kilimanjaro together to raise money for the MBF 2023 Festival
Three Generations climbing Kilimanjaro together to raise money for the MBF 2023 Festival
Three Generations climbing Kilimanjaro together has been done at least three times,
In 2012, 2015 and 2017. The eldest in these multi-generation attempts was 77, the
youngest 12. All participants were fit and able, some had done it before individually.
What makes us different? Probably Frank, what hes been through, and his
determination to keep challenging himself. Not only will be the eldest participant of
all the multi-generation attempts weve been able to find, he has had a,
colourful life and a fair share of challenges along the way, right up to a few years ago
Who is going with him?
Frank Milner (82 at the time of the attempt)
Martin Milner (55 at the time of the attempt)
Sean Milner (51 at the time of the attempt)
Jacob Milner (21 at the time of the attempt)
Sam Milner (18 at the time of the attempt)
Frank is back in training on the Yorkshire 3 Peaks. The aim is to complete the Yorkshire Three Peaks
individually (Pen y Ghent, Whernside and Ingleborough (done)). Then to complete them in pairs,
then all three together. Frank wont stop there. They will then build up to completing the Yorkshire Three Peaks twice in two days. With other walks being completed in the Peak District, Lake District and North Wales, returning to the Yorkshire Three Peaks will be the common indicator of improved fitness. When they are completed twice on consecutive days it will be the fitness indicator that Frank is able to take on Kilimanjaro 5895m (19,340 feet) give or take a fresh snow fall.
