Run the Peaks
Donation protected
In 1981 a team of 5 men set the record for the fastest National Three Peaks Relay Run - 470 miles in 54hrs 49mins. The runners took on the challenge starting at sea level in Fort William, Scotland before tackling the UK's three highest peaks - Ben Nevis, Scafell Pike and Snowdon - before finishing at Caernarfon Castle in Wales.
38 years later that record still stands.
In August 2019 a team of 5 ordinary runners, strangers brought together to find their extraordinary, will set out to create a new mixed relay record and maybe, just maybe break a 38 year old record in the process.
5 runners - Sean Merryweather, Jessica Haney, Howard Crompton, Claire Hobson and Guy Stapleford (aka Miles for Wishes).
5 reasons WHY - Help for Heroes, Mind, Run 4 Cancer, Brain Tumour Research and Make-A-Wish UK.
1 extraordinary challenge.
