Hiking The Yorkshire Three Peaks in England

I have been planning and training for the Yorkshire 3 peaks challenge for around 3 months and got into decent shape to take on the 25 mile hike which includes 3 mountains and 5,500 feet of elevation gain.
The challenge needs to be completed in under 12 hours so you really need to get moving through the mountains with only a few short breaks to take in fuel and food.
I got up at 4.30am and made the 3 hour drive to North Yorkshire from the Midlands and eventually got going at 8.30am.
The weather was pretty bad throughout the day with lots of wind, rain and cold - didn't expect this for June 29th but I guess that is the English weather unfortunately. Despite the weather it was a great experience and one I still loved doing.
I parked at the national car park in Horton in Ribblesdale which costs £5.50 for the full day - postcode is BD24 0HF.

The route I took is available on All Trails but bear in mind that the GPS is very weak in this area so most of the time I followed the Y3P signs which are very clearly marked throughout the challenge:

I took on this challenge for MND and managed to raise a total of £125. Thanks very much to the people who donated to this event. Please check out the charity below:

The Y3P takes in the summits of Pen Y Ghent which stands at 2,277 feet, Whernside which stands at 2,415 feet & Ingleboro' which stands at 2,372 feet.
