3 Peaks Challenge

Next challenge...
A marathon...
Not so easy...
What's that, 24 hours to do it in you say...
Easy!....
Walking!...ha!
This gets even better...
Up and down the 3 highest mountains in Scotland (Ben Nevis), England (Scafell Pike) and Wales (Snowdon)...
...GULP!!!
Yep that's I'm upto later this year in July along with 3 of my work colleagues, our boss and his girlfriend.
9800 ft of ascent a combination of walking travelling in a mini bus between mountains and getting very little sleep...at least its in July and summertime...oh wait this is the UK, we could be walking in anything!!!


I cant wait for this adventure, it certainly wont be easy but hopefully my running means I'm fit enough to take on the task, although I will be doing some walking and spending more time on my feet.
Until then, its keep on running.

  1. Bloody good luck with that, I'm now officially in first time marathon training for the Robin Hood later in the year, and my legs are are stiff as boards for some reason.

  2. Nice. I've been tempted by Three Peaks for ages, but never looked at the actual logistics. I'll be interested in how it goes, good luck!
