The ever popular 24+ gruelling mile challenge visits the summits of Pen-y-ghent, Whernside, and Ingleborough which adds up to over 1500m/5000ft of accent in the wonderful Yorkshire dales national park
Done one of them and cannot ever see me doing 3 in a row so very well done to you all but not much enthusiasm at the start, maybe saving it till the end. The weather was amazing and all those up and down the home stairs looks like it has paid off. That one mole sign must have been like manner from heaven and 11 hours 57m was still good going and even with the sting in the trail a magnificent achievement, cheers Alan
Hi Alan, thanks and no the other people in the group were not very excitable at the start, was an amazing day and 1 that will live with me forever, yes going up and down the stairs really helped, cant tell you how great it was to see that 1 mile sign LOL, everyone in the group was full of it at the end, walking it with a group was great for morale and getting us all to the finish, all i wanted was to complete the challenge and finish within the 12 hours was a great feeling to do it, cheers for watching nigel
Morning Nigel, would be so nice to camp there 😃Nice that 8 of you went out to do this, love the views of Pen Y Ghent . What a great thing to do. Loved the sound and sight of the rushing water under Gods bridge I think it was called. You had fantastic views all around there near the summit of Ingleborough. Well done on this, so impressive wow 11 hours and 57 mins so good. Shame that you got sick but what am experience 👏👏~ Anna👍
Hi Anna and Alf, yes think doing the walk with a group was good plenty of encouragement, your right was Gods bridge a giant slab of limestone over the water, we got a wonderful day with the weather and views, thanks and was a great experience the only down side was i missed the pub meal at night but was ok the next day, thanks for coming along cheers nigel
Well done Nigel! I walked up Ingleborough yesterday and it nearly killed me, I couldn't do all three. You've worked hard with all that training. A brilliant achievement😊
Hi Carrie, thanks, i walked up Ingleborough in february and it nearly killed me also LOL, so i knew i had to get much fitter, its an achievement which will last with me forever, if you put in the hard training you could also do it, anyways thanks for watching cheers nigel ps will look out for your ingleborough vid
Super well done Nigel. The route is epic and certainly affords you great views as you go but it's not a breeze. You maxed out there - hats off again. I hope you're alright and willing to go for another challenge. Great experience. Good going. All the best. Mark
Hi Mark, such a classic route but its as hard as you imagine, yeh your right was getting the drink down me but maybe my choice of food didnt sustain me very well, yes we will be planning another epic challenge for next year, i remember the days when sportsman were sick after a training session and they thought that was a good one LOL, fantastic experience and thank you for watching all the best mate cheers nigel
@@nigelharness9032 Ah, drink and challenges never mix well Nige - better to stick with the fruit juice. I look forward to the next one sick and all - maybe. I was an elite swimmer and have been sick in training a number of times - that's how hard you can push it. Mad people eh? A pleasure as always.
Hi Mark, we already planning next years big challenge, wow an elite swimmer thats impressive, mad people maybe but we make wonderful memories for ourselves, the harder it is to succeed at something and make it is what shapes us, love your feed back cheers mate nigel
@@nigelharness9032 Hey, that's good Nige. Enjoy the planning mate. Yeah, trained every day thousands of meters, was coached by some of the country's top coaches and swam all over. Enjoyed it all - as you say it shapes us. Peace bro.
Enjoying the video. Beautiful views. Hope your feeling better. You worried me Nigel you didn't look well at the end of video. Take good care of yourself. X
Hi Sharon, beautiful place, ye getting back to normal now thanks, is a tough challenge walking 25 miles plus going up and down them mountains, but a great experience thanks for watching and hope your well cheers nigel
Well done Nigel. That’s one tough challenge. The descents off those hills definitely take more out of you than the climb up. Glad you had such a fab time
Hi Anthony, nice to hear from you mate, yes it is a tough challenge but we did have a great time with the 8 of us and will last in the memory a long time, cheers for watching nigel
