    Did the Yorkshire 3 peaks on Saturday in a time of 10 hours 40 minutes. Not bad for a first try. Very enjoyable but that last hill is an absolute killer.

    which way round did you do it?

    i blistered up just over half way round with it being my first walk for months hehe - nowt like practice! I found the last ascent tough going. Did it quite steady away but just under 10 hours if i remember right. I had to hobble the last 2 miles.

    Plan on doing it again but at night under moonlight.

    Not a bad time at all, I'm doing it end of June again for Macmillan Cancer and will be my fifth time. Agree about the last hill it can be a killer!

    3 peaks - looking for sponsors

    I've gota 'sticky' thread at the top of the forum but off the back of this thread thought would bump interest back up again.</p>

    Am doing the 3 peaks for Macmillan cancer support on June 27th and am looking for sponsorship. My initial target was &pound;250 but within two weeks I have managed to get &pound;220 and with a month to go could increase this even more.</p>

    So, if you are able to sponsor no matter how big or small please follow the below link.</p>

    Many Thanks</p>
