    Completed the Yorkshire 3 Peaks on Saturday in just over 10 hours.</p>

    Despite the very low cloud and gale force winds the weather held out and only had 30 minutes of light showers.</p>

    Managed to raise around &pound;800 for Macmillan Cancer through me alone, and still taking cash from people who didn't originally know.</p>

    My 4th go at it, would def recommend it to people!</p>

    Proved very difficult on Saturday.

    Coming down from the first Peak had to cross about 3 miles of bog land. Someone went in waist deep, and carried on.

    Good effort mate. I did it many years ago in 10 1/2 hrs but the weather was fine then.
