OUR HEROES!!!!!!!

Thanks to Fran and Paul (Diggers) for everything they went through last weekend.

Here is a flavour of what they did/went through doing the 6 Peak Challenge!!.......

They were trying to beat the clock as some people had sponsored more money the faster they did it and when they got down from Sca Fell they set off in Mark Mcclay's car and Diggers felt a little sick. However he told Mark to keep driving as he did not want to waste time and was sick out of the car window 3 times at 60mph!!

The Big 3 peaks cover approx 26 miles. There is about 270 miles between Ben Nevis to Scafell and a further 260 miles to Snowdon.(DAY 1)

The 3 peaks in yorkshie covers 24.54 miles without including the inclines up and down.(DAY 2)

Day 1 was completed in 18hrs 45mins. (Target time 24hrs)

Day 2 was completed in 10hrs 5min (Target time 12hrs)

On the last 6 miles on the road back to Horton in Ribblesdale it was complete agony and Fran said to Diggers "the SAS don't go through this much pain"

Oh did I mention the weather was shocking and their tent blew away on Saturday night, meaning they had to get some sleep in the car.

And that finally on their last day ,when they got to the pub where they were due to finish that the pub had stopped serving food. Dinner then consisted of 4 bags of crisps and 3 Mars Bars!!!

As I said they are our heroes!!!!

Thanks to Fran and Diggers and also Norman and Mark, who assisted Sian with the driving.
