    Story

    Last year I hit a milestone birthday and so decided to make some changes after the April lockdown. To date I have lost over 3 stone which has been achieved through swimming every other day.

    However, in order to continue to push myself I have set a personal goal to complete the national Three Peaks challenge. Three Peaks Challenge is the effort to climb the largest three mountains in Scotland, Wales and England, often within 24 hours. This includes Ben Nevis - highest peak in Scotland (1,344m), Scafell Pike - highest peak in England (978m), Snowdon - highest peak in Wales (1,085m)

    This means 23 miles (37km) of hiking, 462 miles (743km) of driving and 3400m (10,052ft) of ascent.

    The plan is to do it within 24 hours, but that to me isn't the crucial part, it’s the climbing the mountains that counts!

    I will pay all the costs incurred so anything you donate will go straight to charity and funds raised will be split between The Ambulance Staff Charity and Dogs Trust.

    Please do give what you can to support these two worthy causes.

      Retired injured after one and a bit mountains. Disappointed, feeling low and in discomfort. I tried. Raised a lot of money for two charities, just shy of £1100. WE should all feel good about contributing and making that happen! Amazing views up Ben Nevis. Stones were as big as hay bales. Waterfalls in most directions. Sunshine, mist and snow. Unable to complete Scafell. Resting my knee after visiting walk in centre back home. Hopefully rest will be sufficient, rather than x-rays and physio.. Thanks for all your support, genuinely appreciated.
