IS IT FOR ME?
If you want a mountain challenge that will test your physical and mental resolve than you are in the right ball park. Some ridges are exposed with steep drops so a head for heights will be required. The ascents/descents are very strenuous so you will need to be "hill-fit". Note that it is far more strenuous and requires more stamina than the National 3 Peaks Challenge. It is also a great deal more rewarding than the 3 Peaks Challenge, and more environmentally friendly! We won't necessarily be running but we will be moving quickly over mountainous terrain with limited "rests".
Note the TOTAL DISTANCE covered will be 50 km, with 4000m of height gain.
