6 Peak Challenge

Good luck this weekend to Fran O’Donnell and Paul Digman (2 of Sian's colleagues from Blockbuster) who intend to embark on the following challenge that can only be described as lunacy.
In previous years they have done the three peaks challenge, which is basically climbing the highest peak in Scotland (Ben Nevis) the highest peak in England (Scarfell Pike) and the highest peak in Wales (Snowdon) in under 24 hours. However this year they are taking the lunacy to new heights and have decided to complete the three highest peaks as normal in the 24 hours then drive onto Yorkshire to complete the three highest peaks in the dales, the Yorkshire peaks alone are expected to take 12 hours to complete. They are attempting to complete the whole task in under 36 hours!

Schedule as follows
Start Friday 20th June
17.45 Ben Nevis (4.45 Hours) up and down (there is a bit of running to do this)
4.30 ish Scarfell Pike (2.45/3 hours) bit more running than Nevis
11.30 ish Snowdon (3 hours) lots more running than the other 2
Finish before 17.45

Then onto Yorkshire for Sunday morning and 12 more hours of dragging yourself up and down the 3 highest peaks in the dales.

Thanks to all involved including drivers and a few who have volunteered to do bits of this mammoth task.

Every Blockbuster store in the UK will be collecting on their behalf this week, so hopefully it will all be worthwhile!!

Makes my running seem a bit tame!!
