Title: Three Peak Challenge
Post by: Thor on June 20, 2010, 08:11:29 pm

Hey, Completed the Three Peaks Challenge friday afternoon, now feel part of the human race again. :grin:

Managed a time of 19hrs 15 mins in  total, the times for the mountians were:
Ben Nevis 3hrs 26mins
Scarfell Pike 3hrs 6 mins
Snowdon 3hrs 7 mins

and far too long in the back of an A3 TDI

The feeling is returning to my legs now and i have stopped looking at the stairs with trepidation :laugh:

has any one else done this challenge, I would highly recommend it as it's giving me a really buzz at the moment :happy2:

ta
