Story
We are thrilled to announce that 11 of us here at AXA Leeds are embarking on an incredible challenge - walking the Yorkshire Three Peaks for our chosen charity, Catch Leeds!
The Yorkshire Three Peaks Challenge is 24-miles (38.6km) round trip route, and includes 1,585m (5200ft) of ascent.
The Yorkshire Three Peaks Challenge takes on the peaks of Pen-y-Ghent (694 metres), Whernside (736 metres) and Ingleborough (723 metres), in under 12 hours.
We want to emphasize that we are just regular people, not fitness experts, but we are determined to take on this challenge for an amazing cause.
On October 4th, we will be pushing ourselves to the limit to support Catch Leeds and make a real difference in our community.
Stay tuned for updates on our journey as we train and prepare for this exciting challenge. We are grateful for any support and encouragement as we take on this adventure for a cause close to our hearts.
