Behind the scenes there has been another person who contributed massively to getting the event done. He did every training walk and was our driver for yesterdays challenge. He gave up his weekend for charity and made sure the car was fuelled and the gear was ready while we did each climb so we could get in and go. We were an hour ahead of schedule after Ben Nevis which unfortunately we lost when the motorway closed near Motherwell which he navigated superbly and took a detour while we slept to keep us on track. I think it’s fair to say we would have struggled to be as comfortable with the time if it wasn’t for Sean James Copeland. Thanks for your hard work this weekend and for your contribution to the fundraising. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻.

Good to be home. Definitely ready for bed. We submitted Snowdon at 04:05, slightly over 21 hours, and reached the car park at the bottom having done all 3 at the 23 hour mark. We will post more updates in due course but thanks to everyone who donated and shared before and during the challenge.

We made good time up Scafell Pike and are on route to Snowdon. Hoping to start climbing at 2am. That one was was hard though. Awful wind amd tired legs at this point in the month. Excited to set off up peak 12 now the end is in sight. Thanks to all who have donated today.

Ben Nevis started at 7am and done in good time, now on route to Wasdale Head Car Park. Sat nav says 17:24 and target to be climbing Scafell is 18:00 so we are slightly ahead of the game which is good. It would mean the world to us if anyone who hasn’t donated yet could spare a few quid, or share to your own feeds. That’s 10 of 12 peaks done and as we approach the final push it would be great to see a final flurry in donations to help us over the line.
