Last week a team from Avidly UK & Canada took on the Yorkshire 3 Peaks Challenge, as part of their ongoing support for Milly’s Smiles.
The 3 Peaks consists of a 24-mile (38.6km) round trip route, and includes a 1585m (5200ft) ascent taking on the peaks of Pen-y-Ghent (694 metres), Whernside (736 metres) and Ingleborough (723 metres), with the aim to complete the whole challenge in under 12 hours.
This amazing group experienced some very gruelling weather throughout the day, but they did fantastic and managed to complete the 3 Peaks in just 11 hours! One of the team, Elle, took a Milly Smiles elephant along for the ride, and got a great photo at the top of each peak!
The challenge raised just over £1300 with more donations still coming in, this is almost 90% of their total target for the year.
Huge well done to the team and their support crew, we hope you have managed to have some well earned rest after such a physical challenge.
We really do feel very lucky to have such committed support from you all.
