Sign Up is now closed. |
 |
Over 220 people are currently signed up for the challenge. We don't have
places for any more than 150. Do not attempt to sign up unless you want
to be a dedicated driver or supporter not walking in the challenge. If
you try to sign up as a walker you will be marked as late and will not
be able to participate in the challenge.
We are still looking for people to join our support team as dedicated minibus
drivers. Dedicated drivers take part in the challenge for free, can be
supporter for a particular team if they wish, and can still be just as
involved as the walkers, even getting people to sponsor them for driving!

2005 Dates: 16th-18th June |
|
This years Three Peaks Challenge will take place on 16th-18th June, keeping to tradition and squeezing between Final Fling and Sports Federation Ball. We'll leave for the journey up to Scotland late morning on Thursday 16th June nursing our Final Fling hang overs. After staying overnight in Fort William the challenge proper will start on Friday 17th June in the early hours of the morning and hopefully we'll finish 24 hours at the bottom of Snowdon in Wales. After driving back to campus there should be just enough time to get some sleep before Sports Fed Ball.
