    Grace , you did amazing! Have just done it myself although my times are not as good as yours. Solo hill walking is a challenge in itself, but one that is so satisfying. well done

    It’s awesome that, not only did you complete the challenge which is a feat in itself, but you must have had to retrace your steps several times to retrieve your camera!

    Used to fell walk bit ived realised I can run ithe distance, the amount of fell walkers I know that now run, can cover soooooo much ground when you put your mind to it!!

    @CamsCampbell Před 2 lety

    Wow. Respect! That was so inspiring to watch. The smile on your face at the top of Snowdon; even after having to wait for 15 mins! And to be filming b-roll too. You’re amazing!

    New sub here, I’ve just binge watched all your videos! My husband is trying to get me into the Welsh mountains and to be honest I never really seriously considered it. But after watching your videos, especially this one, I can feel how satisfying it would actually be! I could really feel your emotion. I’m 48 and will have to get in better shape but I want to do this next year. Thank you!

  • @wildernesstraining1957
    @wildernesstraining1957 Před 3 lety +2

    Loved this! What an amazing challenge, and all by yourself. Most admirable!
    Having to drive between mountains makes it seem almost harder. Psychologically at least. Well done lady.
    I’ll be attempting for the third time tomorrow, to jog continuously for one mile. Stem cell transplant six months ago has left me with the greatest of challenges to get fit again. Never known anything like it it in my life.
    Great stuff!

    Awesome. I’ve been thinking about doing the three peaks but in the UK and it came to mind if anyone has done it solo. After being dissatisfied and finding that no one has done it, I found your video which was a breath of fresh air.
    Awesome content :) impressive

    Good hike, Grace! On the sore knees, consider using hiking poles which will offer more support for your legs. This may also help alleviate or reduce sore lower back. How you’re packing and strapping on your daysack may also help towards reducing any potential back pain. Thank you and looking forward to vicariously participating in your next excursion. Cheers!

    brilliant!! Awesome challenge, Grace! Well deserved amazing smile at the top of Snowdon! Many people wouldnt have ventured from the car park with viz that bad, let alone to the top of a mountain. Fair play to you, driving too! I felt every step on the way off Snowdon though as I’ve been there at the top feeling awful & then the nightmare of back down the Pyg track 😂 Mare. But YOU DID IT!

  • @maggi666
    @maggi666 Před 2 lety

    Wowwww well done girl 💪💪💪 We did 2 Snowdon tracks in July and were 70 & 72. One on that hottest day of the year, phewwww and the second 3 days later in heavy rain! Were now avid mountain peak hikers and have just bought a small tent & gear to start basic camping, then onto wild camping! We used to do big tent camping when our kids were little but basic camping is so much more fun! Plus the tents are now so light! Were so excited! I have subscribed to your chanel and will catch up on your past adventures!

    How funny that I'm just getting into walking/hiking and this video pops up! We (me and the dog) are doing Snowdonia in September so we're getting some practice in before then, doing our first hill tomorrow (too small to be a mountain apparently), but you never know this could be me one day! Fab video can't wait to see more.

    • @GracesAdventures
      @GracesAdventures  Před 3 lety +1

      Love that you’re getting into it Becky - that was me only 18months ago so this could certainly be you some day soon. Keep it up! 💛
