A group of guys from Yorkshire raising money for Cancer Research - Brandon, Chris (Mav), Chris (Tagg), Jamie, Jon (driver) and Paul (Woody) - spurred on by having done the Yorkshire 3 Peaks last year in under 8h30m. Walking times were 4h50 on Ben Nevis (from the Youth Hostel), 4 hours on Scafell Pike (from Wasdale Head) and 3h40 on Snowdon (up Pyg track and down Miners). Driving done expertly by Jon along with general maintenance of the group (cups of tea and other fuel plus corralling kit) - a bona fide lifesaver!! - to enable us to complete within the time limit. What shall we do next??
23 hours and 19 minutes
