I'm hoping that with about 7000 unique visitors a day to the Walk Highlands site, this article will help drum up some interest and maybe even some more donations! If you haven't used Walk Highlands before you should!!! Especially their excellent 'Find-a-Walk" feature, which allows you to search Scotland for your ideal day out, using loads of parameters from distance, ascent and scrambling grade to bog factor!!!

To raise money for the John Muir Trust and WaterAid, my challenge was to traverse the UK BIG 3 mountain rounds in one BIG multi-day push - solo!! This included the Bob Graham Round (England), Paddy Buckley Round (Wales) and Ramsay Round (Scotland), and covers 187 miles, 113 mountain summits and 83,000ft of ascent (that's about 3 times Everest)! I tried to complete this challenge in ten days during May 2011. Read on to find out how it went....
