I am taking part in The Three Peaks Challenge
My Oppo - Three Peaks Challenge
When will this take place:
23rd - 25th July 2021
Dedication to Dan Dempsey:
This year, our challenge is going to be dedicated to Dan Dempsey, a brave soldier who sadly took his own life on the 29th of October 2020 due to his struggles of living with PTSD. We dedicate this challenge to him and his family. #fordemps
What will this involve:
The National Three Peaks Challenge is an event in which participants attempt to climb the highest mountains of England, Scotland and Wales within 24 hours. It is frequently used to raise money for charitable organisations. Walkers climb each peak in turn, and are driven from the foot of one mountain to the next.
* Trekking for around 18 hours during the challenge.
* Covering over 28 miles of undulating terrain. Over a full marathon distance, but with 3 hills!
* Ascending a total of 3000m in a single day. Almost the same amount of ascent as summiting Kilimanjaro!
* Summiting the 3 highest hills in the UK, Ben Nevis (1344m) Scafell Pike (977m) and Snowdon (1085m)
Sounds fun hey!
We would really appreciate any size donation in order to help us raise funds for our charity. Thank you in advance for your contribution to this cause that means so much to us.
