The Railway Children - Three Peaks Challenge by Rail · 17 September 2009 ·
Thanks very much for visiting our fund raising page.
Wow update - and the team have had a tremendous weekend and have successfully completed the 3 peaks challenge.
Having left Euston on Thursday evening at about 1800. the team having dropped Tony off in Preston made it back to Euston at 2330 on Saturday night having spent approximately 18 hours of climbing (and descending) the highest peaks in Wales, England and Scotland (time order).
Times achieved were as follows:
Snowden 4hrs 22 mins
Scafell Pike 6hrs 46 mins
Ben Nevis 6Hrs 31mins
We have all had a quiet Sunday, including Tony who was banned from walking by the lovely Cathy.
Thanks to all of our sponsors, we won the only prize on offer, that of being the most successful fund raisers. However, that is not enough, so please free to donate some more!!
We would like to thank our corporate friends for their donations and especially to GR Lane Health Products who have sponsored us by the very generous amount of £875. Tony suffered from osteoarthritis and three years ago was unable to bend and tie a shoelace. After taking LitoZin Manufactured by GR Lane he is now climbing Snowden, Scafell Pike and Ben Nevis in 36 hours. Truly awesome!!

The team name is the idea of Steve, who pointed out that the men Tony, Frank and Steve were all older than Bob, who at 51 is most definitely the boy!.
