This week's copy of the Oban times (Lochaber Edition) features an article on the UK Big 3 Challenge (Thursday 3rd March edition). Complete with big claims and large photographs it is really quite embarrassing (blush blush) but great for raising the profile of the challenge and the charities I am supporting!

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....
