3 Ultra Marathons. 3 National Peaks. All for Rescued cats and dogs for Harley’s Hounds

Liz Essex is raising money for Harley's Hounds Dog Rescue

Ultra marathon 3 peak trilogy · 5 September 2025

We take abused, neglected an unwanted animals, to help them on a start to a new life. We work with vets an behaviorists to ensure they are mentally and physically sound to start their new lives as loved and wanted companions. We are not for profit, and the funds we raise are essential to our work.

Story

I’m taking on a serious challenge this September and October: running three ultra marathons of just over 30 miles each, with each one climbing one of the UK’s most iconic peaks — Yr Wyddfa (Snowdon), Scafell Pike, and Ben Nevis — to raise money for a cause that means the world to me: Harley’s Hounds Animal Rescue.

These aren’t your average races — we’re talking steep ascents, long miles, and Autumnal weather in Scotland, Wales and the Lakes. Each route is an ultra in its own right, and I’ll be tackling all three as a personal trilogy to support the animals who need it most.

Harley’s Hounds is a small, dedicated rescue doing big work — saving animals from neglect, abandonment and in need. They rely entirely on donations to keep going.

I want to help them save more lives. And I’m asking for your support.

Whether it’s £2 or £20, your donation will go directly to Harley’s Hounds to pay towards - amongst other things:

• Vet bills

• Food (and other necessities like cat litter)

• Foster support and rehoming

My goal is to raise £900 — that’s £300 for each peak. If I raise more, even better! Every penny helps.

If you can’t donate, a share of this page means the world too. Thank you for helping me run for rescue. 🐶 🐱 💛
