Due to conflicting dates I am unable to join my team or team Twende for the 3 peaks challenge. This in itself was a challenge as I had to make the decision to complete the 3 peaks without my team mates. I was supposed to be completing the challenge on 13th September however unfortunately a few weeks earlier I had a bad fall down the stairs and badly bruised/strained my next and upper back. Under physio advise I had to pull out of the weekend and with no further dates available I am unable to complete the 3 peaks but will be doing an alternative walk of the Yorkshire 3 peaks which is a total Distance of 37km/23miles, Ascent: 1381m/4531ft with a Target time of 12 hours.

As you can imagine this has caused a roller coaster of emotions from my disappointment and frustration and then the feeling of being defeated before I’ve even started but most of all the feeling of support from my team and the P&P team. I cannot wait to climb kili with my team and going through the above has only empowered me more to say “I can do this”.
