Three Peaks Challenge

And finally.. With the legs aching, Ben Nevis arrived. (well we arrived at Ben Nevis really.. Mountains don't move towards you!)

Was not looking forward to this as someone who i'd previously spoken to said that this was the toughest. It was zig zag zig zag all the way to the top. And that was a long way. It was about 3 hours for us all to get up there. And what a relief!!

Someone's house. Silly place to live really right at the top. Tescos wouldn't deliver.


Moi with the view behind. I blinked at the time as you can see. Or maybe i was asleep!



It looks and is a long way down!! Some guy was standing on this snow area looking over and plunged to his death just the day before.. So sorry there are no shots from the edge. I wasn't risking it!

One of my best mates is doing this tomorrow with people from work - you don't happen to work for Air Products do you?!

Edit: What am I thinking? He's doing the 15 peaks challenge in Wales. Feel free to ignore me. :p

The Welsh3000s? And I am sure that's 14 peaks lol. Better give em a ring and let em know :p

Snowdon is lovely mountain. I got camping there several times a year. Awesome place. Which route up/down Snowdon did you take?

Meh its pretty much the same as the Welsh3000s just a different way of doing it and with an extra optional mountain chucked in for good measure :D

Hope to do the Welsh 3000s in a few years. Need to get much fitter before that though!

Finally sorted them out :) Sorry for the delay.

Aye so it was all completed within the 24 hours and the £600 we raised will be beneficial to the children's cancer charity up here. Nissan (who we work for) may also match that donation. Overall a good job done :)

It's an absolute pain at times and you really do wonder why you're climbing a hill only to come straight back down.

However sat here now back home I feel quite proud in what I have done and it's a memory I'll have forever. I'd recommend it to anyone, just make sure your fitness is decent enough. Back to work tomorrow. Going to be painful!
