andrewsadventures  > 2010 > Yorkshire 3 Peaks Challenge in April.
Our intrepid team of fearless vegans braved the wildest, tallest and most impenetrably boggy parts of Yorkshire (ably assisted by our long-suffering guide), to complete the famed Yorkshire 3 Peaks Challenge: 38 km and 1,600 m of ascent, in under 12 hours. Why did we do this? To train for something even horribler, of course! In June we tackled the Vegan 15 Peaks Challenge in the wilds of Wales – check out the pics and published stories at www.Vegan15Peaks.info!

Peak 3: Pen-y-Ghent. Sheltering from yet more freezing wind. Seriously knackered after about 10 hours, but this is the very last summit!
The Stairway to Heaven - an 'Escape from Mordor' - style pathway
Given the terrain I kept a sharp eye out for trolls but fortunately encountered only Olaf, who is vegan

Lee's victory salute. Almost there after 10 hrs 30 mins.
Sunset over Ingleborough. After 11 hours we were back to the start, and the wonderful hot showers, pubs, food and drink of Horton-in-Ribblesdale!
