Running account of the 3 Peaks Challenge
by Andre Ravary

With both teams arriving at Snowden within 15 minutes of each other (Girls' team arriving at 1710), it was a quick equipment check, and onwards to the summit.
Leah's ankle felt okay, so she decided to give it a go. Mel is still out due to her "dodgy" knee.
The Boys' team left at around 1715, and the Girls' team left at 1725.
Dave King, the elite driver for the Boys' team has decided to give it a go as well...
More on this as the challenge develops...
